“The Jameson International Graduate Programme is a fantastic opportunity to grow yourself both professionally and personally and has without a doubt been one of the best experiences of my life,” said Megan.
“I studied Physiology in University College Cork, but knew I wanted to gain international experience working with a global business. Although I came from a science background, I felt my personality, entrepreneurial spirit and analytical skills gained in my degree met the ‘serious character’ criteria the Jameson Graduate Programme was looking for.”
“Every day I feel privileged to represent an Irish brand on an International stage. It is also incredibly reassuring to see the post-programme opportunities for Jameson Brand Ambassadors, as many have gone on to have long and successful careers within Irish Distillers and the wider Pernod Ricard family,” she added.
“I would encourage anyone thinking about applying, to do so. Don’t let a lack of classical business or marketing experience turn you off applying. The most important thing is your willingness to learn.”
Graduates are provided with the knowledge, skills and tools necessary to shape their own experience as part of the Jameson International Graduate Programme, enabling them to hone and develop the skills required to progress their career, while contributing to the global Irish whiskey success story.
Additionally, graduates are also plugged into a global community through the Irish Distillers and Pernod Ricard network.
The 2021/2022 intake of graduates will have the opportunity to work in markets across Europe, Africa, Asia and Latin America, offering a truly unique opportunity and broad portfolio of experience.
The Jameson International Graduate Programme is a marketing programme which is open to applicants from all degree disciplines, so a marketing or business background is not essential. Current Brand Ambassadors come from a variety of backgrounds such as law, arts, and psychology, to business and marketing.
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.
Applications for the 2021/21 Jameson International Graduate Programme are now open and close on Wednesday 24th February 2021. Applicants should visit www.jamesongraduateprogramme.com for more information.
