Career pathways tailored to you
We want people who are ambitious, people who recognise that working in Government Property is a chance to do something unique, and want to capitalise on this unrivalled opportunity to build a fascinating and fulfilling career.
We have designed a Career Framework to help you plot your career path and enable you to raise – and achieve – your aspirations in property. The framework will give you a flavour of just how varied and dynamic a career in Government Property can be, in which no two days – and no two jobs – are ever the same.
“Upon qualifying, I realised there is the opportunity in Government Property to pursue a career not just as a valuation surveyor.”

Become a leader of tomorrow
Alongside the Property Fast Stream, we run a Leadership Development Programme in partnership with Henley Business School. This programme helps our leaders of tomorrow build excellent property leadership skills.
It is open to colleagues with the aspiration to move into a property leadership role. Delivered over a twelve month period, this programme leads to a Post Graduate Certificate in Government Property Leadership.
