What you'll be doing:
- In October 2027, you'll begin with an immersive induction, where you'll connect with leaders and learn about our culture, strategy, and the products and services that power, protect and connect people globally.
- You'll kick-start your fully funded post-graduate qualification meeting support networks, understanding key modules and gaining access to the resources available for your self-directed learning.
- You'll also go on a week's residential course with Outward Bound, testing and developing your human skills, agility and resilience in a dynamic environment.
- Post-induction, we'll assess your skills to identify your strengths and development areas. You'll then complete a 6-month gig (or "placement") to develop business technical skills.
- Our gigs span the entire enterprise, from strategy and sales to change programmes, customer/supplier negotiations and programme/change execution.
- You'll also collaborate with other Accelerator members on a 6-month strategic project, solving a real business challenge and presenting your roadmap and business case to executive leaders – a key milestone for your qualification. Throughout, you'll attend exclusive masterclasses, work with senior sponsors, and receive one-to-one mentoring.
- We'll continue to assess your skills throughout, with a review at the end of the programme to determine next steps. This could be progression into a future role within our enterprise, considering your skills and where you can add value at pace, continuing to shape an agile impactful career.
The Enterprise Skills Accelerator programme duration is a minimum of 12 months. Upon completion of the programme, you'll have attained a postgraduate qualification and unlocked an agile mindset, with the ability to learn, unlearn and relearn however the future of work requires. You'll develop an appreciation for emerging tech and AI in the business environment, enabling you to challenge how we work while adding strategic value and commercial impact. So, you have the potential to become an agile leader in any area.
Business-minded graduates who are curious, motivated, and eager to learn. Designed with experiences and support for those early in their career, you'll have graduated by your start date with us and be mobile to travel to, and be based from any one of our key UK locations in Bristol, Derby and London.
