Over two years, you will complete two structured rotations across different parts of our marketplace. Each rotation gives you hands-on experience, real project ownership and exposure to senior leaders.

This is a defined two year journey. Once you join the program, you commit to completing all rotations and development milestones through to the end of the 24 months.
