Clara man encourages graduates to follow in his footsteps

Irish Distillers, makers of some of the world’s most enjoyed whiskeys and one of Ireland’s leading suppliers of spirits and wines, is looking for ambitious Offaly graduates to join the 2022/23 Jameson International Graduate Programme.

Now in its 30th year, the Jameson International Graduate Programme empowers graduates from all backgrounds to shape their future by providing them with the tools and opportunity to realise their personal and professional goals, as part of a global community.

Jameson is looking for creative, innovative, self-starters with an entrepreneurial mindset to follow in the footsteps of Podge Henry from Clara who is working as a Brand Ambassador in Dublin.

Podge, who is currently a Brand Ambassador based in Dublin said: “I couldn’t recommend the Jameson International Graduate Programme enough. Between the role, the company, the people and everything in between, it really is a once in a lifetime opportunity. It’s very rare you get to kickstart your professional career working for a world-renowned company while also having plenty of fun along the way. You learn so much on this programme that you can bring to any job or industry you want to work for in the future. You never know what you’ll be working on and there are always new exciting things happening for the brand, but that’s the part I love most about the role.”

Over 400 graduates have participated in the Jameson International Graduate Programme since it was established in 1991 and the programme has been recognised as most popular FMCG Graduate Employer for eight consecutive years through the gradireland Graduate Employer Survey.

The 2022/23 intake of graduates will have the opportunity to work with Jameson, one of the Top 5 International whisk(e)y brands in the world[1], in one of over 35 international markets.

The Jameson International Graduate Programme accepts applicants from all disciplines, so a marketing or business background is not essential. The programme’s induction programme covers all bases, ensuring that graduates are equipped with the knowledge, skills and tools they need to hit the ground running post-induction. The programme provides a competitive benefits package, mentorship via a global support network and a multi-award winning development programme.

Applications for the 2022/23 Jameson International Graduate Programme are now open and will close on Wednesday, February 23 at 1pm. Visit jamesongraduateprogramme.com for more information.
