Graduates
Mandate is interested in graduates who are looking for a high-flying career in public affairs or public relations.
Our fast-track graduate programme immerses new entrants in the world of public relations, public affairs and business management by offering positions within our client service teams from day one. An understanding of client and project management, business and financial systems, marketing and communications will quickly be acquired, alongside a detailed comprehension of how media and politics operate.
Our graduate programme also offers placements with our partner companies in the Engine group, as well as outside organisations, to accelerate experience and development.
For the right candidates, Mandate promises to support, develop and challenge within its fast moving, hard-working and lively environment. So if you have a strong academic record, excellent written, oral and presentation skills, creativity, initiative and a passion for media, business issues and/or politics and public policy, we want to hear from you.
Our graduate fast-track training scheme runs from September to September. We usually offer two positions a year.
The Mandate graduate scheme for 2008 has now closed. We will re-open the scheme again in spring 2009 for places starting in September 2009.
However, you may be interested in applying for an internship with us as another way of gaining an insight into the workings of a consultancy and a closer understanding of public affairs and public relations in practice. Find out more about our internships.
