Welcoming Our New Work Placement Students through the Santander Scheme

At Sibelius, we’re proud to be supporting the next generation of talent through the Santander Internship Programme. A scheme that connects small and medium-sized enterprises with ambitious students and recent graduates from UK universities.

Through this initiative, next month we will be welcoming two students from local universities to join our team on structured work placements, giving them the opportunity to gain real-world experience and develop their professional skills in a dynamic business environment. For us, it’s about fostering growth, encouraging creativity, and investing in future leaders.

The Santander scheme plays a vital role in bridging the gap between academic life and the workplace. It provides support for businesses like ours to offer meaningful placements, and gives students exposure to real projects, mentorship, and insight into day-to-day business operations.

We’re excited to see the enthusiasm and fresh thinking our placement students are already bringing to the table. As a growing company, we benefit hugely from their energy and outside perspective. In return, we’re committed to offering them a supportive and hands-on experience that enhances their confidence and career prospects.

“We’re absolutely delighted to welcome our placement students to the team,” says Abigail Heaton, Head of Marketing at Sibelius “We aim to provide our interns with meaningful, hands-on experience, while benefiting from the fresh ideas and energy they bring to the team. Initiatives like this are vital for strengthening the connection between education and industry, and we’re proud to play a part in that.”

To all our new students, welcome aboard! We look forward to working with you and wish you every success during your time with us and beyond.
