Graduate - Venture Building Services

Are you torn between the excitement of start-ups and the stability of corporate life? Are you keen to continue learning and developing skills whilst experiencing how to build GenAI enabled products? Are you looking for a role that will offer the opportunity to experience first-hand how a tech company is built and taking ownership of work that matters? If this sounds like you and you are up for the challenge, we would love to hear from you.

We are looking to hire high-energy, entrepreneurial, and value-adding graduate talent who are available for an immediate start to join Blenheim Chalcot, a leading global venture builder.

About Us: At Blenheim Chalcot we use our knowledge, expertise and infrastructure to create an innovation ecosystem which enables our people to turn disruptive ideas into innovative businesses. We originate the ideas ourselves, grow them from the ground up and take them through to exit. We build enterprise Software as a Service (SaaS) products, powered by Generative AI and target industries which are exposed to market, regulatory or technology discontinuities.

Our track record has seen us build over 60 businesses over the last 25+ years, with portfolio revenues of over £500m, £600m of equity raised into the portfolio and assets under management of £1.8bn. Blenheim Chalcot has three global locations, London, Mumbai and Austin with over 3,000 employees.

Our Graduate programme is recruited on a rolling basis in response to the needs of our portfolio businesses, as a result roles are allocated based on needs at the time of offer. We are excited to launch our Graduate Programme. Joining Blenheim Chalcot as a Graduate you will gain hands-on experience in a fast-paced and progressive environment, where you will support us in building our next generation of innovative tech businesses.

You will also embark on a unique learning programme, BC Adventurers, designed by our very own learning business, BC RedTeam, helping you develop and grow your entrepreneurial toolkit. This opportunity will kickstart your career working across a range of fields including product, strategy, marketing, and sales, within a pioneering industry.

For you, as a graduate, this opportunity involves:

• Exposure to the BC portfolio – this role is unlike any other graduate programme. As a BC Graduate, you will be part of one of our portfolio businesses working across a variety of projects, gaining invaluable insights and tangible experience.
• BC Adventurers – you will be enrolled on a 15-month intensive cross-portfolio development programme, designed for those early in their careers or new to the start-up world.
• Graduate Community Programme – one of BC's core values is collaboration. Upon joining, you will be welcomed onto a collaborative 15-month community programme, where you and your fellow graduate cohort will have monthly gatherings, initiatives, and socials.

Centre for Gen AI Innovation – The Blenheim Chalcot Centre of Gen AI Innovation is an enabling institution for Blenheim Chalcot and its portfolio companies. It supports ventures to deliver unique customer value through the application of GenAI and transform the quality and efficiency of their internal operations.

ARE YOU BC? We are not expecting you to have worked in start-ups before or to have studied a tech related degree. For us, it is about hiring the right character and their potential, not just their experience. We look for some key fundamentals in people when hiring into the BC portfolio:

• Curious – people in BC are inquisitive, they want to understand 'why' and consider if there is a better approach rather than take on the 'it's how we've always done it' perspective.
• 'Doers' – we are a community of pro-active self-starters.
• Growth Mindset – being adaptable and recognising the importance of flexibility to add value in a constantly evolving company is vital for us.
• Interest in Gen AI – we are looking for people who are enthusiastic about what Gen AI is doing to industries.
• Humble & Sociable – we have a 'no-ego' policy and seek out people who bring energy to a team.

WHAT WE CAN OFFER YOU:

• Be part of the Global Leading Venture Builder and have the opportunity to be a part of and learn from the incredible talent in BC.
• Access to our Hive Learning platform offering on demand L&D opportunities.
• A fun and open atmosphere.
• Discretionary bonus.
• 25 days of paid holidays + your birthday off.
