Technology Graduate Scheme 2024

Opportunity to experience tailored learning with a variety of apprenticeships including Project Management, Data Science, Software Development and Cyber Security Technology.

Constellation Automotive Group are the largest vertically integrated digital car marketplace in Europe, combining the leading digital brands across the segments of consumer to business, business to business and business to consumer. Our brands include webuyanycar, cinch, Marshall and BCA UK.

Our roles support both a cross section of divisions or could be dedicated to a single division. This provides a unique opportunity to experience a diversity of teams, technology and businesses across C2B, B2B and B2C. This also provides the possibility to change roles within the Group, and experience new challenges and opportunities.

With ambitious digital and physical automotive services growth plans, we are looking for aspiring future leaders who are enthusiastic and well motivated with a genuine desire for a career in the automotive industry.

We recognise that there isn’t a ‘one size fits all’ for tech graduates, as what you specialise in will likely influence your future career path. Due to the scale of our Group, we are able to offer two different journeys for our grads in Constellation Technology.

For those grads who have strong technical skills, you would expect to go down our engineering or ‘tech route’. Areas include software engineering, information security, enterprise applications and Architecture.

For those grads who have more generalist IT skills, you would expect go down our ‘non tech route’. This would give you exposure into areas including tech ops, portfolio and project management.

What you’ll do

• After an initial induction, you will get the opportunity to go on rotation across the Group, in businesses including cinch, webuyanycar, elmo, Marshall and BCA UK.
• Our technology scheme consists of 6 -month placements that span across multiple businesses in the Group. This allows you to really understand our business but also what you feel fits for you before you roll off the scheme into your chosen specialism. Opportunities include Software Engineer, Information Security analyst and Project Manager.
• A mentor and a buddy will be provided to support you and make sure you get the most out of each rotation. We do expect you to make the most of these placements and maximise your experience. You will be part of a larger cohort of graduates in other business areas and this community provides a great source of insight and experience you can draw on.
• Once you apply online, we will review your CV and experience. If it feels like a good fit, you will be invited to a video interview to answer some questions about you and why you have applied for this scheme – it is an opportunity for us to get to know you better and find out what you know about us.
• Candidates who are shortlisted after the video interview will have a virtual interview, and then they will be invited to come along to an Assessment Centre at one of our sites (with expenses refunded). This is an opportunity to meet some of the team, including old and current graduates. It will also give you a good insight into life at Constellation Automotive Group. This is a fun day and you will learn a little about yourself, too!
