Our Construction Graduate programme allows you to gain valuable experience working on a Redrow development site overseeing the physical build process of our homes. This fast-paced, hands-on placement will enable you to work with a number of highly skilled professionals on site and get a first-hand insight into how our award winning homes are built. As we continue to grow, we want you to grow with us as we discover new ways of building homes that push the boundaries of innovation and exceed expectations.

During this two year programme, you will be mentored by a Divisional Construction Director who will support you to oversee all on-site trades, fulfil the build programme and ensure our homes are built to exceptional quality. You will also be tasked with promoting and ensuring site Health and Safety for all.

We encourage them all to grow and maximise their potential by working with like-minded people who share their vision and values.

At Redrow we are committed to continuously promoting Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (ED&I) throughout the business to build a culture that is inclusive to all, actively values difference and ensures everyone is treated fairly.
