From months two to four, trainees will rotate through Customer Experience and Supply Chain Operations, gaining practical exposure to customers and the company’s operational processes.

 

In month five, trainees will move into the commercial side of the business and gain sales experience, building on their understanding of SEND’s customers and operations.

 

By month six, SEND will place each trainee in the department where their performance indicates they are strongest while also considering individual preferences.
