University isn’t always the answer!

Are you looking for your next step or change in career? We have an exciting opportunity to join our award-winning Apprenticeship programme here at Sanctuary. In partnership with our training provider - Learning Curve Group - the programme offers you a chance to study for a Housing Level 2 nationally recognised qualification, all whilst gaining practical work experience.

We are fully committed to support all our apprentices during their training. We’re looking for individuals with the potential to be future leaders within our business, who are keen to immerse themselves and work across all areas of our businesses, with the ambition and desire to build a long lasting, successful career with us.

What will you do?

You’ll become part of our Lettings Team and work closely with our Customer Lettings Coordinators. You’ll gain hands-on experience in how we match people with suitable homes and support customers through the moving process, while building a strong understanding of housing services in a real working environment. By the end of your placement, you’ll feel confident in the lettings process and know the important part you’ve played in helping people move into Sanctuary Homes.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
