Description Looking to kick-start your career in a fast-paced, exciting, and rapidly growing industry?
If you're a driven and determined graduate, the MDS Management Graduate Scheme could be the perfect launchpad for your career.
Over two years, you’ll complete four 6-month placements in different businesses across the food and fresh produce supply chain. From technical and HR to operations, project management and commercial roles, you’ll gain a wide breadth of experience in a variety of areas.
Unlike many graduate schemes, MDS gives you the opportunity to work with a range of innovative, future-focused companies around the world - such as Aldi, Syngenta, Morrisons, Protolan, G’s Fresh, and many more.
As an MDS Trainee, you’ll also work towards a Level 5 Leadership and Management qualification, fully accredited by the Chartered Management Institute (CMI).
How does it work? MDS is a consortium of Member companies that believe in developing talent across the industry, not just within their own organisations. With over 35 years of experience, the scheme has produced a wide-reaching network of successful industry leaders.
