How does the Sea Harvest Graduate Talent Pool work?

You are not applying for one fixed graduate position.

Instead, Sea Harvest will keep suitable applications in its graduate talent pool and use them to identify candidates for future opportunities across the business.

When a position opens that matches your qualification, skills and career interests, you may be shortlisted and contacted.

This means the strength of your application will depend on how clearly your CV shows what you studied and which areas of the business interest you most.

Exposure to different parts of the business

The experience can help you build both technical and workplace skills while learning how a large food-production company operates.

Why is FMCG experience valuable?

FMCG businesses operate at high volume and depend on several functions working together.

Production, logistics, finance, engineering, technology, quality and marketing all need to support the movement of products from operations to customers.

Working in this environment can help you understand how different business functions connect.

That experience can also be useful in industries beyond food production.
