During your first few years at Beca, you’ll have access to a number of formal and informal initiatives designed to assist with your development as a professional within the consulting environment.
The aim of these initiatives is to support you in developing the broad range of skills and experience necessary to become a successful consultant in your technical field – skills that you’ll be able to apply throughout your career.
Beca’s career development philosophy is built on one simple principle - at Beca you can own your career. We have everything set up so that you can drive your own success within a positive and supportive environment.
Working with Gurus
Beca recognises the value and potential that graduates like you bring to our business, so you will have the opportunity to learn from some of our very own industry gurus. These nationally and internationally recognised leaders can actively guide, mentor and expose you to interesting and challenging projects.
We believe the best place to learn is on the job, so you will be involved in real work from the start. You will be surrounded by, and working with, award-winning professionals and be given responsibility for specific project deliverables. Your contributions on the job will be valuable and you will be respected for what you bring to our team as you build your career and help shape our business.
At Beca you will have access to, and the support of, a professional mentor – someone with whom you can discuss your aspirations, expectations and role. You will also be assigned a buddy who can help you get familiar with the company, your office, and the surrounding neighbourhood.
Couple this support with a company-wide willingness to support those who take the initiative and you will find no better place to prove yourself as a professional.
Overseas Experience
A Beca career offers a number of different opportunities to work overseas – both as a graduate and beyond.
Beca has 17 offices in New Zealand, Australia, Singapore, China, Chile, Indonesia and Myanmar. We also have strong professional associations with a number of leading consultancies around the Pacific Rim, the US, UK, and Middle East. And we have worked in over 70 countries!
With a career at Beca, you can even go travelling and build on your career at the same time. We believe that overseas work experience can greatly enhance your personal and professional development, and your future career prospects, so we are happy to help you identify possible opportunities in an overseas office or joint venture organisation, or provide introductions through our relationships and contacts.
Over the years Beca’s China graduates have worked in Singapore, New Zealand, Hangzhou, Beijing, Shanghai, Qingdao and many other parts of China.
