EVOLVE is our two-year programme for graduates who want to embark on a career in the Built Environment.

If you already know what area of expertise you’d like to follow, then the ‘Expert’ pathway is the one for you. It’s also possible that you’re not sure where you’d like to specialise, so we’ve designed the ‘Pioneer’ route for you. This means you rotate across four departments in year one and focus on your chosen ‘Expert’ field in year two.

You don’t need a specific degree to join our EVOLVE programme. For both pathways, your teams and mentor will support your personal and professional learning and onsite development through to the day you become fully qualified. We’ll all celebrate when we see you transition from ‘graduate’ to the next role in your team.

We intake onto our programmes every Autumn, and our opportunities are advertised a year in advance. The next opportunity to apply will be in September 2024 for our Autumn 2025 intake. In the meantime, if you would like to register your interest, or explore if there is an opportunity to join us earlier than this, please contact us at workwithus@ridge.co.uk

We give you our firm commitment that we’ll provide you more than just a job. We place you at the heart of a like-minded ‘Future Talent’ community that’s united by our mission, shares our values, and provides endless networking opportunities.

We’ll deliver the right personal and professional support so you can be the best version of yourself on this flexible, long-term and rewarding career path.

You’ll spend plenty of valuable time onsite with clients, to build confidence and gain first-hand experience.

Sustainability is close to our heart, so you’ll play a part in our mission to lead, collaborate and embed Net Zero Carbon principles in everything we do.
