How better to learn about the scheme than to hear from one of our current Graduates enrolled on the Mars Leadership Experience scheme, Florine:
“In my first year on the MLE, I worked in Sales in Petcare. This year I’m in the Strategic Revenue Management team as a Data Analyst. I’ve never had experiences in either role before I started, so I’m having to learn a lot — but it’s amazing to look back at just the past year and see how far I’ve come. Besides functional learnings, I get to meet such inspiring Associates and learn so much from them in such a short amount of time. It’s one of the things that makes this program so special. I always feel supported throughout my journey, and I’m given the autonomy to take my growth into my own hands. Personal development is one of the key elements of the Mars graduate programs, including building your leadership skills throughout the program and beyond.
Mars is full of very kind and supportive people. It’s a place with a great and unique culture guided by The Five Principles, which is lived through the entire company. The atmosphere is always warm and supportive, and you have many opportunities to shine through the challenges you’re given every day. If you’re someone who’s eager to learn as much as possible, while working with people who will become good friends, then a Mars Internship or Graduate program is something you should consider.”
