Birmingham – December 13, 2022 – CBRE, the global real estate advisor, has welcomed a new crop of apprentices and graduates to its office in Birmingham. 

The firm’s 2022 intake includes apprentices Tristan Coane, Jasmine Butler, Chleo Harris and Tania Conde-Nfuamba, and graduates Lauren Wood and Amar Sangha.

All six have joined as part of CBRE’s Next Generation programme, which offers a range of graduate, internship and apprenticeship places to people looking to forge a career in the real estate industry.

In Birmingham, the first cohort of apprentices to join the Next Generation programme in 2018 recently qualified. Having passed their APC, Jorge Bray and Brooke Matthews have secured roles in valuation and office agency respectively. Nick Barnes has also passed his APC and joins the rating team, resulting in a 100 per cent APC pass rate for the office.

Will Ventham, head of CBRE Birmingham, said: “The Next Generation programme is a great way to get a foot on the career ladder, gaining invaluable on-the-job learning and practical skills whilst also studying for a professional qualification. 

“Ensuring we continue to attract people into the industry, while also leveraging the talent we have in the region is really important and I wish the new intake all the very best as they embark on their journey.”
