Visy highlights its graduate program to build and develop future workforce capability; the two-year program ensures a pipeline of fresh talent across business, says early career manager

Our success is dependent on a pipeline of employee knowledge, skills, and creativity which is why Visy is investing in its future through graduates, university students and apprentices.

By providing comprehensive training and development programs, we are equipping our graduates and young people with the necessary tools and knowledge to thrive across our business.

Visy runs the graduate program to build and develop future workforce capability says Senaya Krishnan, Early Career Manager.

“Our development of talent is strategic and purposeful to support the business now and into the future.

“Through our immersive two-year program we are ensuring a pipeline of fresh talent across our business. Their ideas, skills and knowledge will help drive Visy forward.

“Graduates are supported to develop soft and technical skills. They get to build an incredible network through the program, including exposure to other teams and divisions through their buddies and mentors.”

Earlier this year, 15 graduates — 13 engineers and two in logistics/supply chain — joined our 2023 cohort. They’ll spend the next two years undertaking four rotations of six months, with one rotation being in a different division to their own.

To support their on-the-job training there is ongoing virtual and in-person development on everything from strategic sales to project management and finance.

“It’s a well-rounded program with personal development, like self-awareness assessments, stakeholder engagement and leadership training to support their technical skills,” said Senaya.
