Graduate Programme

Bring your best to the Diageo Graduate programme and you’ll go further than you ever thought possible. You’ll develop knowledge in your chosen scheme area and high-quality leadership skills. This will happen through a combination of formal training, mentoring and coaching from respected colleagues and, most importantly, real world, on-the-job experience.

From the start you’ll be working on projects that will challenge you and put your skills to the test. You’ll be able to make a real contribution to the business while building a global network of relationships that will support your career, both now and long into the future.

Open up the world

We set up this programme to stretch and inspire ambitious, commercially savvy graduates, opening up a world of future opportunities. As a starting point, you’ll be given a Graduate Passport that will unlock challenges in different areas of our business. We'll introduce you to global networks so you can experience different cultures and build valuable contacts. Depending on your aspirations and the opportunities available, you may be able to spend part of the programme living and working in another country.

We’re passionate about building thriving communities. As part of the programme, you’ll also have the opportunity to take part in projects in society that make a far-reaching difference.

Learn and connect

Shortly after you walk through the door, you’ll be allocated a senior mentor and an international and/or local buddy. Through these relationships you’ll receive coaching, guidance, and an invaluable opportunity to learn from people who’ve seen it and done it.

You’ll also have the opportunity to take part in formal training designed to develop your personal and professional skills. Through virtual connect sessions, you’ll join a number of senior leaders and peers around the world to share ideas and thoughts on our business.
