IAG Cargo, the cargo division of International Airlines Group (IAG), has started the application process for its 2023 graduate scheme, commencing this September. IAG Cargo is looking to welcome a new cohort of eight graduates to join the 2-year program following a successful restart in 2022. Candidates will gain valuable experience in different areas of the business including revenue management, human resources, operations, and sales.
IAG Cargo helps to keep the world’s economy moving using the belly hold of its five sister airlines – British Airways, Iberia, Aer Lingus, Vueling and LEVEL – to transport essential goods that positively impact society across five continents. IAG Cargo works to support trade in a variety of different industries, whether it’s to keep the global automobile production line on schedule, stock supermarket shelves, transport ballot papers for an election or deliver life-saving medicine.
Graduates from the 2022 intake have already made an impressive impact and have been involved in several exciting projects from a mentor session with senior leaders in the business to sustainability and digitalisation, and soon they’ll be visiting IAG Cargo’s hub at Madrid Barajas Airport.
Caroline Andrews, Chief People Officer at IAG Cargo said: “I am delighted to open applications for a new cohort of graduates following such a successful 2022 intake. Since our graduate scheme began eleven years ago, they have become a vital part of our success and an important talent pool for IAG Cargo. Working with high-performing teams across the business our graduates are nurtured and supported in a collaborative environment to help them fulfil their true potential and develop into future leaders.
“IAG Cargo is a really exciting place to be right now, in addition to our great incentives, newly refurbished gym and discounted travel we’re investing more in our people, creating an environment where everyone can perform at their best and grow their careers. I’m looking forward to welcoming the next generation of talent and fresh perspective into the business and wish the best of luck to all those applying.”
Ben Ordever, Logistics Graduate at IAG Cargo commented: “This program has allowed me to take responsibility within a number of projects right from the start, working with people across different sectors and taking inspiration from key leaders. No day is the same; new problem-solving opportunities arise regularly, making each day interesting and unique.”
Based at IAG Cargo’s head office at London Heathrow, successful graduates will have the opportunity to join a global, diverse, and inclusive team where the culture encourages everyone to bring their true selves to work. They will receive a competitive salary and participate in the Company Bonus Plan, enjoying a number of company funded and voluntary benefits including discounted flights.
Applicants have until 31 March to apply to join the program.
