Trainee program

We initiated our trainee program to give young, highly-motivated university graduates an opportunity to gain valuable professional experience in an international environment.

The trainees get to know the company at various sites and also receive training in selected areas. This combination of work and training optimally prepares them for their future positions within the company. In addition, they also have the chance to ideally develop their personal expertise and skills in order to subsequently play a role in shaping the future of AGRANA.

Our trainee programs start at regular intervals, depending on the needs of our business divisions and the various specialist departments. New trainee programs are announced directly on our website under the section on current vacancies as soon as the program starts. We therefore advise you to keep an eye on our current vacancies or, in the meantime, to apply for an internship or directly for one of the vacant positions.
