Opportunities

As one of the most talented graduates in Europe, you could drive a significant part of what we do today and in the future.  In return we can equip you with the training, motivation, environment and opportunity to excel – and create a uniquely rewarding career.

Training and Development

Your development is as important to ICI as it is to you.  We see you as a future senior business manager and can offer you the opportunities to challenge you to achieve that vision.  Your individual programme will be unique, defined by your roles and supported by your ambition and motivation. Far from telling you what to do, we expect you to take the initiative and drive your career yourself.

Alongside your functional and individual training you will be provided with development opportunities under “The ICI European Graduate Development Programme”. This Programme has been developed to provide graduates with an understanding of the ICI Group as a whole and a network of contacts throughout Europe.  Each training event aims to enhance your business-based knowledge and your management and team working skills.  Your manager will be familiar with the aims and objectives of the programme and will provide opportunities for you to put your learning into practice.
