People Graduate - Learning and Development

Job Description:

At Sage, innovation starts with our people. With over 13,000 colleagues across 40 locations worldwide and more than 2 million customers, we're united by a shared purpose: to transform the way millions of businesses work. As a global leader in AI, finance and HR software, we harness cutting-edge technology to simplify complexity and drive progress.

We're looking for ambitious graduates to join our Learning & Development team - people who don't just want to run programmes, but want to shape how learning drives performance, capability, and growth at scale.

Why join Sage as a Graduate?

This isn't a passive development programme. From day one, you'll work on real business challenges, contributing to how Sage builds critical skills across AI, leadership, and commercial excellence.

You'll be expected to think differently, challenge how we work today, and help us design the future of learning - not just support it.

Hybrid, 3 days per week in the office
What you will be involved in
* Help design and deliver learning experiences that are embedded in the flow of work - not just traditional training
* Use AI tools, digital platforms, and emerging technology to enhance how learning is created, delivered, and personalised
* Analyse learning data and performance insights to identify what's working, what's not, and what needs to change
* Contribute to the design and delivery of early careers, onboarding, and global learning programmes, including rotations
* Experiment with new ideas and approaches, testing and iterating to improve learner engagement and impact
* Support the creation of modern learning content, including digital, social, bite-sized, and AI-enabled formats
* Partner with stakeholders across L&D, People, and the business to align learning to real capability gaps and priorities
* Track and communicate the impact of learning on performance, behaviour, and business outcomes

What we are looking for
* We're looking for graduates who are curious, proactive and motivated to make a real difference - not just follow a process.
* A degree or equivalent experience in a relevant area such as Business, Psychology, HR, Education, or Marketing
* Confidence using technology and openness to experimenting with AI and digital tools
* Strong analytical thinking and an interest in using data to inform decisions and improvements
* Clear communication skills and ability to work across different stakeholders
* Adaptability and comfort working in a fast-moving environment
* Curiosity about how people learn, perform, and grow - and how to make it better

You'll stand out if you:
* Actively explore AI, automation, or innovative ways of working
* Bring ideas and aren't afraid to test, learn, and iterate quickly
* Care about impact, not just activity

Your Graduate Programme
* You'll be part of a structured graduate programme designed to build critical skills and accelerate your readiness for a long-term career at Sage.
* The programme will combine:
* On-the-job learning and real project ownership
* Exposure to different teams, projects, or rotations
* Development aligned to Sage's future skills including AI, data, and business capability
* Opportunities to contribute to high-impact, global L&D initiatives
* You must be available to start October 2026

Working at Sage you will also benefit from:
* Access to global learning platforms, expert-led sessions and digital tools
* Opportunities to work on strategic projects and with senior stakeholders
* A clear career pathway into L&D or the wider People function
* 25 days holiday plus bank holidays, private healthcare, competitive pension and more
