You’ll be responsible for ensuring our brands are successfully promoted, readily available and well presented to anyone who wants to buy them.
During the programme you’ll have an opportunity to excel in areas across our Commercial Sales teams such as Account Management, Customer Marketing and Customer Activation. You’ll discover everything you need to know about our brands, our competitors, the market and customers.
At Diageo, we believe in fostering a culture of continuous learning where every day presents an opportunity for growth, development. Across your graduate programme, you will have a combination of formal training, mentoring and hands on learning with the wider Africa Cohort. This will help you gain a strong foundation of leadership skills, a deep understanding of Diageo’s operations and feel empowered by the end of your programme to follow various career paths within our organisation. From the beginning you’ll be working on projects that will develop and improve your skill set. You’ll help shape the future of our brands and business by driving growth, all whilst building a global network of relationships that will support your career, both now and long into the future.
