The most populous city in the North-East, Newcastle upon Tyne is a thoroughly modern city of commerce, education, and culture. Its history spans centuries, from its establishment under the Roman rule around 2nd century AD, through medieval times when it received its name (stemming from a castle built by William the Conqueror's son), early modern period when it was the centre of wool trade, coal mining, to the modern period and industrial revolution when it became an important port, shipbuilding location and a repair centre. Nowadays the city has a thoroughly modern economy with Sage Group or Greggs being headquartered in town; famed for its nightlife, Newcastle has a bustling hospitality sector. All these factors make it a particularly good location for starting your search for graduate jobs. The whole area of Tyneside is in the top 15% best places to live in the UK according to Uswitch--that is no coincidence. Newcastle can boast high safety ratings, and very good scores in healthcare, climate, and property price to income ratio indexes. The last stat is particularly important to fresh graduates, as it means that once they have a lucrative graduate job they are more likely than their counterparts in other areas of the UK to afford their own house quicker. Before that, though, renting is the viable option; tenants moving into properties in Newcastle will be pleased to hear that the rental costs are 65.5% lower than in London, while the costs of goods and services is ca. 24% lower than in the capital. This makes Newcastle a very welcoming destination for fresh alumni, making their transition into full-time work and responsible adulthood gentler and easier than it might have been in the south. The economy of Newcastle is varied and robust, giving people in search of graduate jobs numerous opportunities in a wide range of sectors and companies. The nearby University of Durham identifies five major employers that offer fantastic graduate positions to talented students. In digital, media, and software it is the Sage Group, the third largest supplier of enterprise resource planning software. Graduates of various courses can find employment with Sage, as the company typically offers opportunities in various departments. Greggs and Nestle lead the way in food, drink and fashion sector, offering positions in finance, sales, marketing, supply chains, and quality. Financial sector--very popular with a great number of alumni--is proudly represented by Deloitte, one of the Big Four accounting organisations, and Virgin Money PLC, a UK-based bank and financial services company. Graduates should not limit themselves to applying to these 5, of course. Newcastle offers such a variety of positions and companies that anyone will be able to find the right graduate job for themselves. Public sector is always a good choice, which while not offering the highest earnings is renowned for great job safety and fantastic pension schemes.
