Job Details

Experience Days for this Program will take place on multiple dates between December 2020 and February 2021.

Our Finance Graduate Program puts you into real management roles across our leading logistics and supply chain business. You’ll deliver real results as a valued member of our team and you’ll learn as you lead and inspire.

Our Finance team are responsible for managing DHL’s resources so it can meet its goals and objectives – to be the world’s leading logistics provider. As companies like ours grow, it's important to have a structured approach to Finance. It’s all about supporting our front line business – our Warehouse & Transport teams.

The DHL Finance Graduate Program provides placement opportunities for graduates to experience a broad range of different environments within both site and regional Finance teams. As a DHL Graduate, you will benefit from working within a variety of business sectors which will include working with some of DHL’s high profile customers in our consumer & life sciences, retail, automotive, Specialist Services & Transport, engineering, energy & chemical sectors.

During your program, you may undertake positions such as a Finance Assistant, Business Analyst or Finance Manager, or be involved in large scale Finance Projects which you support & manage.

  • 36-month structured Program
  • 3 x 12-month placements
  • Based in either a site or regional Finance team
  • Early responsibility and fast progression
  • Experience of working within fast-paced sites and environments
  • A framework of personal and professional development modules focusing on managerial skills
  • Regular performance feedback and personal development planning
  • Support towards a CIMA professional qualification
  • All placements are within our UK business

Entry Requirements:

  • Our placements do not require a background and/or qualification in Finance but we do seek individuals who have a keen interest and desire to progress within this discipline
  • Strong interest and motivation to start and develop a career within the logistics/supply chain industry in the UK market
  • Fully mobile to travel within the UK (graduates will be required to relocate for their placements whilst on the Program)

As part of a growing DHL population, you will receive access to a variety of our excellent benefits which include; 25 days holiday, pension scheme, medical cover, childcare vouchers and retail discounts. You will also receive an annual salary review and be included in our annual bonus scheme.

In return for your hard work, we offer excellent career progression opportunities upon successful completion of the program and a professional environment where you can acquire, use and continue developing your skills.
