FISHER GERMAN SUMMER PLACEMENTS 2021/22 | 3

Life as a summer placement student “After completing my first year at Harper Adams University, I began working for Fisher German as part of their summer placement scheme. Throughout my eight-week placement at the Stafford Office, I was involved with a wide variety of work associated with being a Rural Chartered Surveyor. I gained first-hand practical experience of site inspections, helping with a wide range of valuations, estate management and much more. No day at Fisher German is ever the same!

The team atmosphere at Fisher German allows you to get involved in all aspects of working life, including the social side, making you feel like a member of the team right from day one. During the second year of my academic studies the practical knowledge I have gained throughout the summer placement has been invaluable to my work.”

Placement Student

“Whilst studying for my degree at the Royal Agricultural University, I was able to undertake two summer placements with Fisher German at both the Market Harborough and Ashby Offices which I thoroughly enjoyed and provided an excellent insight into the business and the wider surveying industry. A key aspect of both placements was the diversity of work offered; ranging from drafting Farm Business Tenancies and reviewing Telecoms Leases to arranging site access on behalf of a large utilities client. After graduation, I joined the Bedford Utilities Team as a Graduate Surveyor which allowed me to work with a diverse range of stakeholders and further develop the skills that I was able to learn across both summer placements. By actively promoting creativity and engagement from all levels of the business, Fisher German provide a number of excellent opportunities to their placements and graduates including exceptional support through the APC process to RICS qualification.”

“I thoroughly enjoyed my eight-week summer placement with Fisher German due to the variety of work which I had the opportunity to undertake. This included both work within the office and out on site visits. I was situated in the Utilities department at Ashby de la Zouch for the full eight weeks. This allowed me to experience the whole process of the projects and meant that no two days were the same! It really opened my eyes to the surveying world and confirmed that I want to be part of the industry in the future. The experience gained through this placement has helped me hugely in my final year at university. In particular, the practical side of the work at Fisher German has really helped to put my University work into perspective. During the eight weeks I was warmly welcomed by each member of the team. I joined in the social activities outside of the office, such as the office rounders tournament between all of the departments, which I thoroughly enjoyed.”

Graduate Surveyor

Fisher German are absolutely committed to recruiting the best people. We have developed an unrivalled training programme to ensure every graduate achieves their full potential. As part of this, we recognise the importance of offering work experience to enable better understanding of the profession through practical on-the-job experience. I have been lucky enough to experience this first-hand, having joined as a graduate and progressed through the levels to now lead on graduate and placement recruitment. I am proud to have this role and it’s great meeting so many enthusiastic and talented people who really are the future of the business: we would love you to come and join us this Summer!”
