Social Media Graduate Programme

A rare and exciting opportunity is available for a number of graduates to join some of the North West`s leading creative and digital companies that want bright, creative social media enthusiasts to join their teams, while studying on a recognised (and funded) Social Media Graduate Programme. This, therefore, represents a fantastic opportunity to get some real on-the-job training, work with some sexy brands, gain a recognised qualification and be job-ready at the end of it all. Oh, and you will also be paid £26,000 per year, tax free, while you`re learning.

As you`re part of a generation that spends most of its time on Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest. It`s time you thought about turning that into a well-paid, rewarding and enjoyable career. We understand that having a degree doesn’t necessarily give you a foot in the door with so much competition around, and industry experience can make all of the difference. This is an opportunity for 15 Social Media Graduates to start work in early November at one of 15 companies across the North West, including: Warrington, Middleton, Manchester, Wilmslow, Bolton and Liverpool.

Digital marketing is one of the fastest growing sectors in the UK, so your prospects upon completion will be very promising.

What`s in it for you?

– A tax-free training allowance of £26,000 pcm (equivalent to a salary of approx. £13,000)
– Three months intensive social media training provided by industry experts
– Learn from well-known guest speakers
– The chance to secure a full time position in a competitive industry
– Six months vital on-the-job experience for your CV

To be considered for the Social Media Graduate Programme you must have at least:

– A degree
– Graduated in the last two years

To apply for the Social Media Graduate Programme please submit your interest and you will receive further instruction on how to complete the application process.

The deadline for entries is 30 October and shortlisted candidates will be invited to attend a selection day on 5 November 2015 where 15 lucky graduates will be chosen, and start work on 9 November.
