Summary

Redrow are one of the UK’s largest and most successful five star housebuilders. Our purpose is simple; we build beautiful homes in places people want to live. We don’t just pride ourselves on building quality homes – we build quality careers too!

You will also gain experience with our Planning teams who support the division’s strategic land objectives by achieving and maintaining a quality land bank.

As part of the two year programme you will join the Land and Planning Departments of one of our regions, working and learning from experienced land and planning professionals such as our land managers and planners. You will also be mentored by Senior Directors within our business and have the opportunity to undertake formal training to support your ongoing professional development.

Supporting the physical, emotional and financial wellbeing of our people really matters and it\'s something we take very seriously. The health and wellbeing of our employees and sub-contractors is embedded at the heart of our culture and as part of this, we offer a wide range of wellbeing programmes, initiatives and education to support our colleagues both in work and in their personal lives.
