Evolve Graduate Programme
Take on real work alongside people who expect more from themselves and each other. Over 18 months, you’ll build technical expertise, develop professionally, and gain experience across disciplines, supported by structured training and mentoring.
The EVOLVE Journey
All graduates begin in the Engineering Studio, a collaborative environment where you rotate across teams and disciplines. This approach gives you broad exposure to how projects are delivered while helping you identify the areas that suit your strengths. From the outset, you are supported by a Buddy who provides guidance and encouragement, ensuring you settle in and thrive with confidence.
Over the course of eighteen months, the EVOLVE Graduate Programme blends structured learning with real project experience. You will work on high-value projects, develop technical and professional skills, and take part in leadership modules that prepare you for future responsibility. Alongside this, one-to-one career coaching provides clear guidance towards chartership and long-term progression.
It is a programme that balances challenge with support, giving you both the experience and the confidence to grow.
Mastering the essentials
The programme is shaped around structured modules that strengthen your technical expertise and your professional development. Learning is applied directly through live client work, where you are supported by mentors and colleagues who help you navigate new challenges. The experience is enriched through workshops and one-to-one guidance, connecting you with people across the business. Ethos’ culture of collaboration and continuous learning ensures you develop steadily while building the skills needed for long-term success.
Milestones that matter
Completing the EVOLVE Graduate Programme is a significant achievement. By the end of the programme, you will have gained depth in your discipline and built relationships that support your career long after graduation. Just as importantly, you will have the confidence to take ownership of your next steps. Ethos marks this milestone with a dedicated celebration, recognising both your progress and the journey still ahead.
A permanent place at Ethos
Graduates join Ethos in a full-time permanent role from day one. The programme is designed to accelerate your development, providing additional support in your first 18 months so you can achieve more in less time. With Ethos beside you, you are empowered to shape a successful and rewarding career.

I didn’t have a background in building services and was apprehensive about the knowledge gap. It was never an issue thanks to mentorship and one-to-one guidance from day one.
