What is Build the Future?

Build the Future is the Prysmian Graduate Program. 2025 will be our 14th edition! 

 

We are looking for talented individuals from diverse backgrounds and experiences who are eager to make our world more sustainable and excited to take on new and exciting challenges. 

 

Are you ready to leave your mark on our communities' energy transition and digitalization? This is your chance to be a part of a critical change and help us build a better future for all. Join our global team and make a difference! 

 

The Program offers two distinct paths: the Global Build the Future, which provides a 3-year international experience, and the Empower Your Community path, where you will work in the region of your hiring. More details are provided below.

Are you up for the challenge?

Our Graduate Program provides an immersive experience in our company from day one.

 

The program starts with a two-week Global Induction, featuring training and activities led by the Prysmian Group Academy in collaboration with a top-ranking business school.

 

Following your induction, you will start a one-year job rotation in 3 different departments: Research and Development, Operations (located in one of our production sites), and Sales Support/Technical Sales. This first year takes place in the country where you were hired.

 

After the first year of rotations, you will start your international assignment, which has a duration of 3 years.

 

In your third year, if you are part of the Global Build the Future Program, you will start the International Assignment for a duration of 3 years. If you are part of the Local Empower Your Community Program you’ll take over a local role in North America. In both cases, you’ll be assigned to a technical role at one of our production sites strongly linked to the core of our business. You’ll learn new ways of working, acquire new knowledge, and learn more about different cultures!

 

At the end of your International Assignment, as you return to the Country you’ve been hired in, you will continue your career at Prysmian Group in the same area or in a new one based on your performance and available development opportunities.

“I appreciated the chance to rotate through and to experience new positions in different departments; I also enjoyed the business training that we get for professional growth and the chance to move to another country, learn a new culture and language.”

Mack, Build the Future 2019

Manuel, Build the Future 2019

Renee, Build the Future 2019

 

“The PGP has been a challenge since day one. The constant exposure to obstacles and opportunities dictated my path inside the company. Among different positive impacts, I highlight that Prysmian has given me the opportunity to learn a new language, to build an international profile and significantly boosted my self-confidence in my personal and professional life. Looking back in time, the PGP was the entrance door to an outstanding adventure.”

Questions & Answers

After your local onboarding, you will join an induction that will give you an overview of our business and our products. This induction is a great chance to network, and you will also meet our CEOs and business leaders. You will receive an excellent overview of the company and our products and technology. Your training, which is organized by the prestigious Prysmian Academy in collaboration with a top-ranking business school, will continue throughout the program. You will also participate in different business games and training sessions with our senior managers. 

During the rotations, participants can explore different fields and develop their careers within Prysmian. We will consider your qualifications, interests, feedback on the rotations, and the business needs to find a role that best fits you. You can also express a geographical preference for the international assignment; however, the available positions will determine the location of the international assignment.

During rotations, each participant should start building an idea of which field they want to work in the following years of the program and during international assignments. Prysmian will take an individualized approach to find a fitting role for each graduate, considering the qualifications, interests, rotation feedback, and business needs. Participants can express a geographical preference for the international assignment, but the available positions will define the location. 

At the end of their rotation year, the graduate program participant will receive a proposal outlining the best area that matches their expectations regarding career growth and availability in the company. This proposal could lead to assignments in R&D or Operations for your international assignment. The position will be mainly based in one of our production sites and strongly linked to the core of our business. 

The international assignment is part of the Global Program; in the Local Program, you will take over a local role within the North American Region.

The recruitment process begins in July 2024 and will be completed by February 2025. The Graduate Program will start in March 2025.

Imagine the possibilities with the Global Build the Future Program! This unique initiative offers a 3-year International Assignment at a Prysmian location outside North America. After spending 2 years in your home country, you will be presented with the opportunity to take on a role abroad, opening up a world of new experiences and opportunities. 

The Empower Your Community program will provide you with onboarding, training, and job rotations similar to the Global Program. However, you will remain in North America, changing your location within the United States and Canada. For a more in-depth look at the Empower Your Community program, click here.
