About the Rising Executive Programme
The Rising Executive Program is a transformative rotational journey designed to equip high-potential early career professionals with the essential skills for future leadership in our business. Participants at the Business Analyst level will spend two years in the program to immerse themselves in diverse geographies and business functions, gaining firsthand insights into the core drivers that propel our European, UK, and USA operations.
The rotational program offers a set of development opportunities, including strategic projects, task forces, and networking events, complemented by targeted trainings, workshops, and conferences to hone management and leadership skills. Rigorous performance development ensures that Rising Executive candidates are successfully meeting and exceeding program competencies and showing excellent potential to progress in our business.
Towards the end of the program, each candidate who has successfully passed their competency reviews will collaborate with the Program Director to craft their next steps: either into the next level of the program (to become a Business Planning Manager and continue their development) or into another role in the business.
