How the Management Development Scheme works:

The scheme forms the basis of your first two/three years as a management trainee with the company and comprises three interlinked elements:

•   Your placements

•   Your training

•   Your personal development

From day one, you will build an in-depth understanding of the complexities of providing high quality cleaning products to a wide range of corporate markets.

Your Placements

You will have immediate responsibility, as your placements are real jobs from day one.  These placements will take you around the JohnsonDiversey organisation providing a wide view of the business where you will have the opportunity to make an impact from your very first day, contributing to real business decisions.

Your Personal Development

Our training and development focuses on individual needs by working with each employee to develop a performance plan.  You will participate in a series of training courses and development workshops to ensure that you are supported in achieving your own personal development goals.

By participating in the Impact graduate open programme you will gain a breadth of experience by working alongside people from other organisations.  The five-day open programme builds confidence and increases self-awareness at an early stage in careers.  It comprises of exciting and challenging indoor and outdoor projects, facilitated reviews and powerful feedback.
