No published policyMitchells & Butlers Undergraduate Work Placements 2027 (Property, Marketing)

Unconfirmed. Mitchells & Butlers publishes no sponsorship policy for its undergraduate work placements 2027, so we cannot state a firm answer. Alongside its four graduate schemes, Mitchells & Butlers runs two undergraduate work placements for students taking a sandwich year, both starting October 2027. The Property placement is the more distinctive of the two: the placement student is mentored by a Chartered Professional and rotates across all Property departments, named as Building Maintenance, Building Development, Estate Management and Property Finance. Two places are offered, one in Building Maintenance and one in Building Development, and the published package is GBP 24,500 per annum plus a company car, with mobile and field based working. The Marketing undergraduate placement is a 12 month fast paced central marketing placement framed as building marketing skills to take back into university study. Both sit on the same graduate schemes page and use the same application route. The Property window was open at the time of checking and closing on 12 October 2026, while Marketing was listed as opening soon. Entry criteria mirror the graduate schemes at a 2:1 achieved or on track. Nothing published mentions visas or sponsorship.

“With a Chartered Professional as your mentor, you'll gain invaluable experience across all Property departments, including Building Maintenance, Building Development, Estate Management, and Property Finance.”

The catch: A company car with a field based placement implies you will need a UK driving licence, which the summary does not spell out. Only two Property places exist, split across two different departments, so choosing wrongly halves your odds. The Marketing placement had not opened at the time of checking. Both are Birmingham anchored.
