Applications for the new two-year graduate programme close Thursday 29th October 2020
Applications for the newly launched Jameson Engineering Graduate Programme will close on Thursday 29th October 2020 and Irish Distillers, makers of some of the world’s most enjoyed whiskeys and one of Ireland’s leading suppliers of spirits and wines, is encouraging engineering graduates to consider an exciting career with the world’s leading producer of Irish whiskey.
As part of the two-year programme, graduates will work alongside a world-class whiskey production team with state-of-the-art technology in a challenging but rewarding placement that offers real responsibilities, structured learning, defined rotations, and project work.
The programme offers placements at either Midleton Distillery, Cork, or at Irish Distillers’ bottling operations plant in Dublin, where the world’s best-selling Irish whiskeys are created and bottled before being exported around the globe.
Mairead Griffin, Head of Talent Acquisition at Irish Distillers said: “Applications close on Thursday 29th October and we at Irish Distillers would like to encourage as many engineering graduates as possible to consider applying for the programme. We have a history of supporting and nurturing young talent and want to leverage this experience to support the next generation of engineers through the Jameson Engineering Graduate Programme. Engineers play a fundamental role in the distillation and bottling processes, and we want to make sure that we have a pipeline of talent to meet our business needs, now and in the future.”
“We already have a team of capable and talented engineers within the business who have risen up through the ranks. Our production leadership teams are ready to support and guide our new engineering graduates through the two-year programme. In Cork, graduates will build technical expertise with both theoretical and practical technical training on distillation pots, distillation columns, vessels, pumps, valves and instrumentation, boilers, conveyor belts, heat exchangers and automation control systems. While graduates in Dublin will have the opportunity to engage with and receive training on our fully automated state of the art process systems and packaging equipment.” added Mairead.
“The programme is designed to give graduates ownership of their career aspirations, supported by practical experience and training to help them succeed. We are looking for curious self-starters, who view a challenge as an opportunity. We see the successful candidates as having the desire to turn a job into a passion.” she concluded.
Graduates will also attend the Irish Whiskey Academy, a state-of-the-art training facility located in County Cork on the grounds of Midleton Distillery, which focuses on the production and heritage of Irish whiskey produced at Midleton.
The programme offers a structured learning programme that provides professional, technical, and personal skills development through onboarding, rotations, professional skills development, a mentoring and buddy framework, project work, and technical skills development. The programme is initially seeking Level 8 and 9 graduates from Process and Chemical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Mechatronics, Design or Automation Engineering.
