You’ve finished your studies. Now it’s time to get started.

You don’t just want to start your career—you want to take on responsibility right from the start and grow within the real estate industry?

Our 18-month Graduate Program gives you the opportunity to take on responsibility early on and develop specifically into a real estate brokerage specialist. You’ll learn about the various facets of brokerage, work directly in the market, and be mentored by experienced colleagues.

The program is new and offers you plenty of room to help shape your own path at Ginesta.

18 months that will take you further

With us, you won’t go through a traditional trainee program where you switch departments every few weeks and just dip your toes into everything. You’ll dive right into the real business. Step by step, you’ll take on more responsibility—until you’re managing your first marketing accounts independently.

You will learn to analyze supply, demand, and pricing in your market area.

Real Estate Appraisal

Valuation Methods in Practice—with guidance from our valuation specialists.

You will assist with sales meetings and take the lead on your own initial contacts.

Develop Marketing Strategies

From positioning to the ad: You’ll help develop the strategy.

Advising clients

You’ll advise property owners and prospective buyers—first with guidance, then independently.

Conducting Site Visits

Preparing, conducting, and following up on site visits.

Negotiation

Structured Negotiation—Preparation, Argumentation, and Closing the Deal.

Complete the Process Successfully

From the preliminary agreement to the notarization and handover of the keys.

Targeted insights into new construction, commercial real estate, real estate valuation, property management, marketing, and digitalization will complement your education and give you a comprehensive understanding of the real estate business.

From Your Own Idea to a Business Case

We want to know what you see when you take a fresh look at our company and our industry.

That’s why, during your Graduate Program, you’ll develop your own business case for Ginesta. You’ll identify an opportunity, a new idea, or a specific area for improvement, analyze the topic, and develop a viable concept based on your findings.

You’ll present your idea to our decision-makers—and if it wins them over, it could lead to more than just a presentation. After all, new perspectives are one of the reasons we launched this program.

And after that?

Your professional development shouldn’t end after 18 months. Our Graduate Program is designed to support a long-term career at Ginesta. Our goal is to hire successful graduates as real estate marketers and help them continue to grow with us.

Graduate

An 18-month program, guided by experienced real estate professionals.

Real Estate Agent

Your own listings, your own market area, your own client relationships.

Team Leader

For talented individuals with the potential and desire to take on leadership responsibilities.

Site or Market Area Manager or Subject Matter Expert

What matters most is not years of service, but rather professional development, performance, personality, and a willingness to take on responsibility.

Why Ginesta?

Because with us, you’re not just one of many.

Ginesta is a family-run Swiss real estate company with over 80 years of experience. We combine decades of real estate expertise with a commitment to continuous improvement.

Our size is an advantage: short lines of communication, direct interaction, and early access to experienced real estate professionals and decision-makers.

You can ask questions. You’re encouraged to challenge assumptions. You should contribute ideas. And when you’re ready to take on more responsibility, we’re eager to give it to you.

The first cohort. Maybe with you.

Our Graduate Program is launching for the first time. We’ve set our sights high and established a clear framework. But we don’t want to lay everything out down to the last detail just yet. After all, we want the people who complete our first Graduate Program to help shape it to some extent.

That’s why we aren’t looking for fully-fledged real estate professionals. We’re looking for smart, curious, and ambitious individuals who are eager to learn about real estate, take on responsibility, and build something new together with us.

Maybe Ginesta won’t just be your first job after college.
