Zespri is again hoping to attract top young finance and supply chain talent to the kiwifruit industry through its graduate recruitment scheme.
The programme was launched last year, with applications for a second intake closing in September (2015).
Three positions are available to recent graduates, offering 12 months working across Zespri’s business and the wider kiwifruit industry.
The successful applicants will each be partnered with a senior executive mentor for their time at single desk marketer. Zespri global sourcing partner Bernadette Ryan-Hopkins said the graduate programme would continue the company’s commitment to develop the future leaders of the sector.
“The kiwifruit industry is looking at serious growth – with export earnings set to double by 2020 – and Zespri wants the brightest and best employees on board to grow the business,” Ryan-Hopkins explained. “The first graduate programme has been a phenomenal success and we’re so excited to be doing it again.”
Applications are being sought from university graduates with degrees relating to supply chain management and finance. Applications are open to New Zealand residents until 13 September 2015.
