Foods Plc: a FTSE 100 international food
ingredients group. We operate in ten countries
throughout the world, employing 42,000

Our business is not just about sugar, we

industry and seed coating and enhancement
technology.

group is extremely diverse, it retains a unique
culture that is as friendly and supportive as
a small company but with the excitement of
a truly international business. It also means
that every individual has a chance to make a
highly visible impact.
The graduate programmes begin with a
comprehensive induction to the business,
the structure, the market and the business
issues we face. This induction is followed
by a series of core training modules to give
graduates from all disciplines an insight
into general business topics and general
management skills. Throughout the scheme
each graduate will be supported by their own
personally assigned mentor. A wide variety
of training courses are offered throughout the
duration of the programme.
