Young Potential Program UNILIN

The Young Potential program aims to proactively reinforce our talent pool with entrepreneurial young potentials to secure our future growth. The program focuses on hiring “top of class” last year students (Masters in Industrial, Civil and Commercial engineering, Masters in Commercial Sciences,…) or high potentials with a first experience, fitting the UNILIN DNA and eager to take responsibility. Through proactive recruitment of 1-2 future business leader profiles per year we seek to hire potential succession material for our top management positions. They will be recruited decentrally and employed across plants or even product categories and divisions.

The young potentials will be assigned to challenging preliminary defined tasks/projects in order to develop their full potential, let them grow and prove value for the organization. Each task/project will have to comply with a number of criteria:
