Work experience at Clowes has showed me the variety of career opportunities within the property sector.

I chose Clowes Developments as my work experience placement because of the variety of projects across their portfolio. Even though the business is small in scale in terms of the number of employees, the turnover of the company is large and they are involved in some impressive schemes across the UK. The vastness of the experience I could gain from completing a placement at Clowes caught my attention, as I knew this would show me the scope of the property sector.

My time at Clowes has demonstrated the fast pace within the ‘big shed’ and logistics sector in particular. The Clowes team were very helpful answering questions and guided me on what was happening throughout meetings. This has helped me understand the multiple roles involved in developing property and I have a better insight into opportunities which might suit me in the future. The most unique thing about Clowes, from a work experience perspective was travelling to the sites and witnessing the planning, delivery and execution process.

I would highly recommend work placements at Clowes to anyone looking for a career within the property sector. Clowes provided hands on experience in all the roles involved in developing a site and helped me to understand the different processes necessary to deliver world class developments.
