APPLICATIONS TO HOST TRAINEES FOR THE NEXT GMTS INTAKE (SEPTEMBER 2023) HAVE NOW CLOSED
The multi award winning NHS Graduate Management Training Scheme (GMTS) offers its trainees the opportunity to develop the skills, knowledge and confidence needed to become proficient leaders of transformation who can manage the balance between access and affordability. We work closely with the National Leadership and Lifelong Learning Team to deliver this scheme across the Midlands, taking the lead on ensuring placements are of the highest quality and provide a fantastic experience for trainees.
Interested in helping our graduates gain experience?
It is our job as a Regional Leadership and Lifelong Learning team to manage placements, local networking and training. Whilst on the scheme each trainee will complete at least two work-based placements within local organisations, gaining experience as well as providing a valuable contribution to the organisation. The next scheduled intake for trainees is due to take place in September 2023. Applications have now closed for this intake, but you can continue to register interest to host trainees for future intakes here: Host a trainee – Graduate Management Training Scheme (graduates.nhs.uk)
If you have any questions or would like to discuss hosting a trainee further, please contact Andrew Spears, Dawn Simmonds and Daniel Boateng at [email protected]
Interested in being a trainee?
As a trainee on the scheme, you’ll need to be enthusiastic, innovative, passionate and motivated about improving patient care.

The scheme is full time for 2-3 years, depending on specialism and you will rotate between full time work placements, postgraduate education and leadership development. The next GMTS intake is scheduled for September 2022, though please do note that applications for this intake are now closed.
The scheme is recruited to and led by the NHS Leadership and Lifelong Learning team, which is part of the People Directorate in NHS England and Improvement.
