Program
We believe that for our business to be the best - and to grow sustainably - we need to develop the people who will lead that growth. We need the managers of tomorrow.
Working on real projects from the outset, our global management trainee program is the first step on a global career. From your induction in St Louis (USA) to your end-of-program presentation, you'll be treated as one of our future leaders. You'll learn about running one of the world's most successful businesses, and you'll learn about where you will fit in best.
Primarily though, you will be learning about management - about how to be a leader in company that is intent on being and remaining a world-class organization. And that includes learning from feedback - and understanding that we are a team, where individuals are never afraid to learn, to make mistakes, and to develop - as part of becoming great leaders.
You'll follow a structured, full-time 10-month program where you'll learn about how our entire business works. This covers everything from supply, logistics, sales, marketing and trade marketing through to information and business services. You'll also learn about our other functions - people, legal and corporate affairs, procurement and finance.
You should graduate (before September 2017) with a Bachelor, Masters (or equivalent) degree from any of the following disciplines:
- Business, Economics, Marketing Sales, Finance, Science, Engineering, Law or IT.
You'll fit in best if you have an entrepreneurial spirit, be results-driven and have undertaken some form of leadership position either inside or outside of university. You also need to be fluent in the native language of the country you wish to work in, and English, to be eligible for this program.
