How does it Work?

The Graduate Programme is held over a two year period, with two six month placements and a one year placement facilitated by various Business Units. The programme provides Graduates with an opportunity to gain experience in different areas such as Data Analysis, Marketing, Project Management and Procurement to name but a few. At the beginning of each programme we assign a mentor to each graduate. The mentor provides guidance and support to the graduate, as and when required.
