About Volkswagen Group UK
One group. Five brands. Unlimited possibilities.
We’re driven by difference. With five globally recognised brands under one roof – Audi, SEAT, Volkswagen, ŠKODA and Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles - each with its own history, designs and inventions – we’ve created some of the world’s most iconic vehicles, from luxury sports cars to family camper vans. Here, you’ll discover opportunities, explore ideas and tackle challenges that you won’t find anywhere else.
Whatever drives you, at Volkswagen Group UK you’ll find a career that matches your ambitions. The range of experiences we offer are unparalleled in our industry – and the places they could take you are just as varied.
Our award winning Undergraduate Placement is open for 2017-2018 applications in six of our key disciplines - Marketing and Communications, Planning & Analytics, Operations & Support, HR, Finance & IT.
Operations and Support Placement
Our Operations & Support placements include roles in any of our 5 brands as well as our Group Aftersales & Customer Quality and Commercial Services functions. In this department, you’ll establish and maintain the benchmark for excellent service, for both our customers and our internal team.
Being successful is as much about having great products, effective sales and marketing strategies as it is about having the great processes and procedures to make it happen. The Operations & Support stream has a range of roles that really impact the way our business works.
To be successful in these roles you’ll need to be able to demonstrate an aptitude for service delivery, have a passion for business as well as the commercial awareness or understanding needed to bring insight and creativity to the workplace. You’ll have real drive and great communication skills, not to mention an eye for detail and the ability to produce outputs of the highest quality.
You don’t have to be a car enthusiast to come and work for us. It's more important that you demonstrate a passion for your chosen specialism and for the commercial experience that your year in business will give you.
Whilst on the scheme you will receive a salary of £17,500 per annum and a generous benefits package including a car, performance-related bonus, healthcare cash plan, contributory pension scheme and an annual holiday entitlement of 27 days plus the bank holidays. Additional flexible benefits are also available, like a cycle to work scheme, discounted gym membership and many more.
Application Process
If you pass our initial CV screening stage, you’ll be invited to a telephone interview where you’ll be asked a number of questions to assess your suitability for the programme. If you’re identified as a stand-out candidate, we’ll invite you to one of our assessment centres in November 2016, where you’ll meet some of our Managers and other Undergraduates. This process is designed to help you and us work out if the Placement here is right for you. Successful candidates will be offered a place soon after the assessment centre.
