Overview of the Role

Overall, how would you describe your experience at Savills?

My experience at Savills has been very good. In particular, the support around the APC process is very good and the general running of the Graduate Programme is great.

What are the main responsibilities of the role and which elements of the role do you enjoy the most?

I am a fixed graduate within the property management team. I have rotated into a valuation team for a short two-month period, which was enjoyable. However, have not had exposure to other teams. I have generally enjoyed my role in property management. I primarily enjoy the small amount of client-facing side of my role, as I enjoy speaking to individuals on a daily basis and building relationships.

To what extent does your role give you the opportunity to contribute meaningfully and feel valued by your team?

5/5
I feel incredibly valued and useful within my team - 5 stars.

How does your compensation package - including perks & benefits - fairly remunerate you for the work you do?

I am gaining great experience in property management. Due to the wide range of tasks, I feel it is setting me up well for my future career.

How would you rate the extent to which you were developing new or existing skills through formal training and your day-to-day role?
