Graduate Development Program


Our two-year program provides graduates with a solid understanding of our business, where they are mentored by the leaders responsible for delivering our world-class public transport system.
Graduates rotate regularly and have the opportunity to work with leading-edge technology and modern systems in a safe, equitable and diverse environment. A structured learning program exists for first year graduates to equip them with a wide range of fundamental skills. For second year graduates, specialised training is provided to fast-track their careers.
If you like the idea of working with great people on interesting and diverse projects then the PTA is a great destination for you.
On successful completion of the program graduates will be offered permanent employment.
Applications for the 2023 Graduate Program have now closed.
