Norse is a national, award winning property consultancy delivering high profile, inspiring professional services to a range of public and private sector clients across the UK. We offer local delivery supported by national capability.

South West Norse Ltd is seeking a Placement Student to work mainly with our Chartered Rural Surveyors based in Exeter. The Placement Student will join a supportive, collaborative team of Rural Surveyors, where knowledge is shared and professional growth is encouraged.

The team primarily manage the successful Devon County Farms Estate – a c.9,500 acre Estate comprising of 64 residential equipped farms let to entrepreneurial new entrants into farming. The Estate is continuously evolving and adapting to industry pressures and economic drivers.

About the placement:

You’ll enjoy a genuinely varied workload across our estate, where many entrepreneurial and award winning tenants have diversified into exciting and unique enterprises. No two days will look the same: you’ll be out on farms meeting tenants, shaping new lettings, and working with colleagues to move repairs and maintenance issues forward. You will also have the chance to be involved with biodiversity and environmental projects underway across the Estate; and working with the wider Estates team you will have the chance to work on negotiated and compulsory purchase highway acquisition schemes for the local acquiring authority.

Our Successful Candidate:

This role would ideally suit a Placement Student from the RAU's Rural Land and Property Management degree course.

We can support students to complete the first year of the Assessment of Professional Competency (APC) for the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) whilst on Placement.

A full UK driving licence is essential.
