Savills Insight Programme 2025

Savills is committed to eliminating discrimination and encouraging diversity amongst our workforce. Our aim is to be a truly inclusive employer with a workforce that is representative of society. To help us achieve this, we have put in place a number of initiatives and positive action to support people from all backgrounds in accessing roles and opportunities with us. You can find out more about our Diversity and Inclusion initiatives here.

One of these initiatives is our Savills Insight Programme.

The Savills Insight Programme is a paid, one week, internship for 1st year undergraduate students to provide a great work opportunity and to help us attract and nurture talent from diverse backgrounds. This programme will address our current under-representation in the business and support candidates from global majority backgrounds, lower socio-economic backgrounds and candidates with long term health conditions into the business and industry.

Savills Insight Programme is an opportunity for first year students from these backgrounds, to shadow a Savills graduate for one week, in a division that interests them.

HOW WILL THE PROGRAMME RUN?

Our aim is to provide a flavour of the work of Savills graduates and to show potential future candidates how the property industry works. During placements we offer the opportunity to attend departmental talks to learn about other areas of the business, attend social events and meet directors from across the company.

The scheme demonstrates how we work, and what real estate entails. It is a valuable chance for students considering entering the property industry, and especially to those who think Savills could be their employer of choice. The Insight Programme is also a valuable way to strengthen an application for our summer scheme.

Teams will be confirmed, after interviews have taken place, at the point of offer.
