Dnata launches graduate management scheme
Dnata part of the Emirates Group and owner of Travel Republic, Netflights, Gold Medal, Travel2 and Travelbag, has launched its first graduate management scheme.
It is looking to recruit six graduates next spring for a September 2020 start. Each must have achieved at least a 2:1 degree in any subject at any UK university.
Over the course of a two-year rotational programme, they will spend time with dnata’s B2B and consumer brands, working in various departments including finance, marketing, sales and operations, IT, HR and product.
They will be working towards a Masters in Leadership qualification at Ashridge Business School.
Upon successful completion of the two-year programme, candidates will be invited to apply for management positions anywhere in the business.
Dnata began a roadshow promoting the scheme to students at Edge Hill University earlier this month, and will be promoting the programme at other universities including the University of Central Lancashire, Glasgow University, and Lancaster University in the coming weeks.
Head of people resourcing Anna Ricketts said: "We’re looking for dnata Travel Group’s leaders of the future with this scheme and expect it to bring exciting new talent in to the business.
"The diversity and scope of our business is unrivalled, and we’re confident that anyone who joins us through the scheme will learn an enormous amount."
