Job description

Calling all technical graduates. Are you looking for an opportunity to kickstart your career with a two-year Graduate Programme that offers industry leading training and mentoring? How about gaining experience at a global FTSE 100 listed software company, that has big growth ambitions? Welcome to Sage.

Our software is designed to help businesses make decisions faster and more accurately. That requires tech experts who can create, develop and maintain industry leading products.

What will the programme look like?

You’ll be encouraged to learn and experiment as part of a continuous innovation community, in an environment where ambition for future progression is rewarded. We’ll expect a lot from you, and you’ll be encouraged to bring innovative ideas and technical solutions, that add real value for our customers.

To support your technical development, you’ll have the opportunity to work in a variety of technical tracks, such as Cloud Ops, Product Management, AI, Software Development, XD and more. Graduates will complete role-based projects and will acquire technical expertise through individual technical learning development plans.
