If you’re looking for a graduate programme that goes beyond the ordinary and gives you real responsibility from day one, Rapleys is the perfect place to start your career.
At Rapleys, you’re not just joining a graduate scheme, you’re becoming part of a people-focused, ambitious and growing business where your development genuinely matters.

During your first year, you’ll undertake a series of rotations lasting two months across four different divisions providing valuable insight into the wider property industry and helping you build a strong foundation for your APC professional qualification.
Your development is our priority. Throughout the programme you’ll receive dedicated support from experienced professionals, including an APC Supervisor and Counsellor or equivalent professional mentors, depending on your pathway.

Hear from our previous Graduates
“The graduate rotation scheme began with six months in the Building Consultancy team, my home department, where I gained experience across both the project and professional teams. From day one, I was supported by colleagues at every stage of their careers, from APC candidates through to Partners, giving me the confidence to take ownership of projects and surveys while having experienced people to learn from.
Each department has been welcoming and invested time in helping me understand their area of expertise, while giving me the opportunity to contribute to work that I can take back to my home division.”
Oliver Hampson, Graduate Surveyor
I joined Rapleys as a grad in Planning division in September 2025. The best part has been being exposed straight away into a range of planning projects, ranging from smaller scale housing and commercial schemes, as well as large scale masterplanning (Ebbsfleet Garden City) and specialist sectors such as Data centres (Redhill).
Across all divisions at Rapleys, I’ve felt is overall very relaxed and welcoming atmosphere where everyone is helpful to educate and guide me as I learn new skills for in my early career, as well as keen to recognise and utilise skills I have to offer. I’ve also really enjoyed day trips, (Oxford Party) and out of office socials around Soho which is a great location, as well as the occasional football match and volunteering afternoons which are a fun way to way to get to know more people and the business functions.
Tom Gedye, Graduate Surveyor
“During my time as a Residential Graduate Surveyor, I have gained exposure to various projects across the public sector, affordable housing, and residential development. This experience has strengthened my understanding of valuation methodologies, development appraisal, and report writing.
As part of the graduate scheme, I have also undertaken rotations across other divisions within the business, providing insights into different areas of the wider real estate industry. These rotations have enabled me to work with a wide range of colleagues and projects, whilst strengthening my understanding of how various disciplines within the industry work together.”
