Global Graduate

Overview

Global Graduate Leadership Development Programme

Shape the Future. Lead with Purpose.

Are you driven, curious, and ready to make an impact in a global organisation? Our two-year rotational programme is designed to accelerate your career and develop our leaders of tomorrow. You’ll undertake three placements where you will be immersed into real life jobs, providing the perfect stepping stone into your permanent role and long-term career within Spirax Group. One of these placements will be fully funded, in a country of your choice!

Whether your passion lies in commercial or in manufacturing excellence, you’ll gain hands-on experience across diverse business areas, working on real-world challenges that impact our customers, whilst staying at the forefront of digitisation and sustainable solutions. Through solution selling and innovating, our customers are our key focus and will become yours.

We’re looking for ambitious graduates with a minimum 2:2 honours (or equivalent) in a degree related to Science, Technology, Engineering, Maths or Business and eligibility to work permanently within the UK without requiring a visa. You will be eager to grow, learn, and eventually lead. You’ll be supported by a strong network of mentors, peers, and leaders, all committed to your success.

What you can expect

• Rotations across global teams and functions
• Tailored leadership development and training
• Exposure to cutting-edge commercial and manufacturing projects
• A collaborative culture focused on customer-centric solutions
• Opportunities to shape strategy and drive performance

What you’ll get in return

In return, you’ll receive a seriously competitive salary, plus a bonus to help you get started. Company benefits are country specific, but all are highly competitive. We’re unashamedly proud of our culture, so if you’re passionate about working in an inclusive environment, pushing boundaries and solution finding, you’ll thrive in our world.

Development is crucial to supporting you in your career and we give it to you in bucket-loads! From external training to internal learning sessions and even a global graduate conference – we want to make sure you are the best version of you.

Programme details

The programme will start in October 2026 and you will be based in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire for your first placement which we arrange for you. Whilst offering a hybrid work pattern, we highly value the importance of learning through networking and collaboration. As you progress through the programme, you may need to relocate to one of our other UK sites, depending on where your choice of placement is based. Remember, one of your placements is in an international location!
