Local graduate employers

Many of the larger graduate recruiters do have local offices in Leeds, particularly those that recruit to the finance sector. In addition to this, there are some local organisations that are looking to take on a number of graduates over the coming year. Some examples are:

However last year they set up their own scheme taking on ten graduates of which five were from the University of Leeds. In 2013 they are hoping to take on fifteen to twenty graduates.

The graduate scheme is run by the Children’s Service Directorate but recruits graduates to all areas of the council. To get up to date information on the programme send your name, course details and university to graduateprogramme@leeds.gov.uk
