Traineegroup 2011

Young Graduate program

At Volvo Aero you will be given the chance to work at the forefront of the aerospace industry. In addition you will be given the possibility to develop within a company that is large enough to enable us to collaborate with many of the leading companies in the industry, but small enough for your role in the company to be significant.
As a candidate you should be interested in working with product and production development, purchasing, logistics or quality and have the desire to take on a possible role as a leader in the future.

Qualifications
• Fairly recent completed master degree in Engineering (300 ECTS) within the following areas:
• Mechanical Engineering, Physics Engineering, Industrial Management and Engineering or a similar education
• Well developed interpersonal skills and experience of some form of leadership
• A high standard of  English, written and spoken, and Swedish.
 
 We presume that all applicants will be able to travel during the program and will be able to stay abroad for approximately three months. We also need candidates with good social skills in order to take initiatives and maximize the learning experiences from networking, training and job rotation.


Programme Set Up
The duration of the programme is 11 months, and during the first 8 months graduates are located at the Volvo Aero headquarters in Trollhättan. The 3 last months are spent working abroad at one of our contractors, customers or associates.


 
During the first 8 months graduates work in 4-6 different departments within the company, normally in periods of 6 weeks at a time.  Meanwhile time is set aside for education, field trips and projects within the graduate group. The programme requires all graduates to take a driving and active part in the planning and execution of all activities, allowing each graduate to in a great extent shape their own programme agenda.

The next program will start 10th of September 2012. You can apply for the program now and the last day to apply is April 22.
