careers service for details of events.
Mars®, Uncle Ben's®, Whiskas®, M&M's®,
Dolmio®, Pedigree®, Maltesers®, Extra®...
these are just some of the global brand names
which make up our $40 billion portfolio,
making us one of the world's largest consumer
goods companies.
Still a family-run business and privately
owned, Mars is able to invest its profits
back into developing the organisation. This
means graduates have the freedom to think
differently and the ability to do things that
convention wouldn't ordinarily allow. In fact,
Mars graduates get all the support, autonomy
and responsibility they need to become a big
name in their own right.
Development programmes
Whether your talents lie in research and
development, engineering, finance or
procurement, our renowned development
programmes offer responsibility right from
the very first day. All of our programmes
will give you a real job from day one, which
will allow you to expand your knowledge
whilst stretching and developing your talent,
potentially discovering skills you never
knew you had. Structured around a rigorous
training curriculum and strong individual
mentoring relationships, our programmes
offer you the opportunity to take control of
your career while benefiting from our years
of experience in developing some of the UK's
leading managers.
General management
Our Management Development Programme
is a fantastic opportunity to gain experience
across all areas of the business. You could
work anywhere from manufacturing through
to human resources or supply chain to
sales and marketing. Whichever path you
choose, the breadth of experience, amount
of responsibility and support for your self
development will help you build your
credentials as a leader that will follow you
throughout your career.
Who we want
Our graduates are excellent at building
effective relationships with people across the
business.
They have the drive to deliver and thrive on
high levels of responsibility and freedom
to shape their roles. In return, we provide
a fantastic support structure – including
exceptional mentoring support from our
senior leaders who will offer you advice and
guidance throughout the programme.
At Mars, we value our graduates because we
know it's these gifted individuals that help our
business do amazing things. It's a difference
worth discovering.
