LCR Grad Scheme

About LCR Grad Scheme

LCR Grad Scheme, part-funded by the European Social Fund, aims to connect SMEs in the Liverpool City Region (LCR) with local graduate talent. The Scheme recruits and trains graduates on behalf of SMEs. Successful applicants will have a two-day induction to meet their fellow LCR Graduates and get prepared for work, before hitting the ground running by starting work with an SME. They will also enrol on a six-month professional development programme to create the skills needed to succeed within the exciting small business sector.

The 2021 cohort of LCR Graduates will start in late October and events to advertise the 2022 Scheme will start soon after.

LCR Grad Scheme applicants can choose to apply for one the below streams:

• Marketing, open to graduates from all degree disciplines.
• Technical, requiring graduates to have specific qualifications such as Engineering or Computer Science.

Being involved as a Brand Ambassador offers a unique opportunity to build your own network with fellow students and local businesses, and support the economic growth of our amazing city!
