MONTAGU EVANS PRESENTS...EARLY CAREERS
THE INTERNSHIP WAS A NEW LEARNING EXPERIENCE WHERE I CONTRIBUTED ON A MIX OF INTERESTING PROJECTS. I FEEL THAT I DEVELOPED SOME KEY SKILLS, WHICH WITHOUT THE SUPPORT AND WILLINGNESS OF THE TEAM TO TEACH, ANSWER EVERY QUESTION AND GIVE HELPFUL INSTRUCTIONS-WOULDN’T HAVE BEEN POSSIBLE. FURTHER TO THIS, I SAW FIRST-HAND THE POSITIVE TEAM CULTURE (WHERE PEOPLE ARE GENUINELY INVESTED IN EACH OTHER), WHICH MAKES WORKING AT MONTAGU EVANS UNIQUE AND EXTRA SPECIAL.

At the end of the internship you will present in teams as part of a wider group project that you will complete over the course of the 4 weeks.
Successful candidates will be due to complete an RICS or RTPI accredited undergraduate degree, or due to start an RICS or RTPI accredited Masters degree.
I'M GLAD TO HAVE INTERNED AT MONTAGU EVANS. EVEN THOUGH IT WAS ONLY 2 WEEKS I LEARNT SO MUCH ABOUT PLANNING , I WAS CHALLENGED AND GIVEN WORK THAT CONTRIBUTED TO LIVE PROJECTS. I HAD A FANTASTIC MENTOR AND EVERYONE WAS SO WARM AND WELCOMING WHICH MADE ME FEEL AT EASE. OVERALL IT WAS THE BEST PLACE TO START MY CAREER IN PROPERTY.

My one month summer Internship at Montagu Evans far exceeded my expectations. The program was extremely well organised and the rotations across two different departments gave a practical insight into the varied opportunities within each discipline. We were given the opportunity to participate in current projects and even attend meetings with clients. The partners were accessible throughout and their guidance and feedback was invaluable. It was evident that those at the very top of the company take an active interest in the internship program.

Josh Myerson, Head of Rating
"I've learnt my trade from some of our industry’s most experienced and respected figures at Monty's. They supported me and often asked me to take responsibility for things I felt were outside my comfort zone. Little did I know it was all about turning me into a Partner."
Robert Bower, Managing Partner
“I joined as a Graduate in 2011, and was promoted to Partner in 2019. I haven’t worked anywhere else, but I cannot envisage a more supportive, engaged or fun environment. The firm is always fully behind you, allowing you to concentrate on what matters.”
Will Seamer, Viability
“I joined in 2007, and my first achievement was to survive the APC…just! Why have I never left? It boils down to the sheer variety of opportunity that the firm offers. I've never been put into a box and have been supported to choose my own path. I honestly believe that level of autonomy and trust isn't anywhere else.”
Oliver Chivers, Valuation
"The ability to develop and progress has always been encouraged. Now a Partner myself, I recognise it was the breadth of opportunity afforded to me, the support and encouragement from a brilliant team, and the working with a varied range of great clients has allowed me to progress here.”
