Management Development Program:
The Management Development Program combines responsible and important job assignments with educational training. The Program begins with the Field Analyst role and through job rotation within various segments of the organization provides associates with broad and valuable management experience. Throughout the program, employees will enhance their general management and leadership skills, gain exposure to core operations, interact with executive leaders and receive frequent developmental feedback while establishing a leadership career path. Following this first rotation, Management Development Associates typically transition to a front line supervisory role (e.g. Manufacturing, Customer Service, etc.) before moving into staff or project management positions within other corporate departments or divisions (e.g., Marketing, Operations, Finance, etc).
As an associate in our Management Development Program, you will have the opportunity to learn about what it means to be part of the Bobrick family through an on-going rotational program.
