Lead by Sam Holton, head of trainee development at CSS, assisted by Sarah Chalmers-Stevens and Richard Bennett, this represents one of its largest collection of graduates in recent years.

The CSS Training Academy has delivered more than 200 surveyors into the industry over the past six years.

Matthew Cumber, managing director of Countrywide Surveying Services, said: “The trainees have all worked extremely hard whilst receiving well-structured and comprehensive classroom training complimented by on-site training from mentors who have taken the time to support them on their qualification journey and represent an invaluable part of our training process.

“We are incredibly proud of the continued success of our training academy and the calibre of the trainees passing through its ranks, all of whom have bright futures here at Countrywide Surveying Services.

“And we look forward to seeking out the next generation of surveying talent and unleashing them on the industry over the course of 2022.”
