Why Join Chaucer?

Chaucer has professional teams who work closely together across disciplines, offices and countries to achieve remarkable results. Our people often shoulder more responsibility earlier in their careers, and are empowered to make decisions. If you are ambitious, this is an exciting place to build a rewarding career, with personal progression paths, overseas opportunities and the sense of being part of something special.

Development built around you

As a graduate or apprentice, we will create a development plan for you. This will include rotations around the business so that you get a deep understanding of what each area does and meet more of our teams. We will also do our best to support your efforts towards a professional qualification. If you show us you are a high flyer, you will join our Advance Programme with greater opportunities for skills building, networking and mentoring with wider industry experts. 

While most of our graduates begin in London, we have teams in Dublin, Copenhagen, Bermuda, Miami, Dubai and Singapore offering the potential to work abroad.
