IT Graduate Programme

Who we are

We are one of the world\’s largest globally diversified natural resource companies. We mine, refine, market and recycle a wide range of raw materials that have become an essential part of everyday life as we know it – and many of which play a key role in the energy and mobility transformation we are all striving for.

Our global headquarters are located in Baar, Zug, in the heart of Switzerland. Our Executive Board and all Group functions such as finance, compliance and sustainability are based at the company headquarters in Baar and so are our marketing departments for metals, minerals and coal.

The Glencore Graduate Programme

The Graduate Programme at our global headquarters aims at developing the next generation of Glencore professionals. The programme offers successful graduates the opportunity to understand different functions of the business through internal rotations and to advance their careers in a performance-driven culture.

Our graduates work directly with industry experts, are given real responsibility and as a result gain a variety of skills. Additionally – graduates receive training on topics like trading, traffic, finance, business analytics, networking and public speaking through best-in-class training partners.

All graduates are assigned a mentor to guide them through their development at Glencore. Our mentoring programme supports new joiners in understanding company culture and building their network across the organisation.

The IT Function

Our Information Technology (IT) function provides efficient business applications, processes and tools.

Our services include amongst others: IT operation, support and service, business analysis, procurement, development, test and systems integration, engineering and installation, training, and continuous improvement through user groups.

We are committed to a Global IT Strategy that enables us to leverage economies of scale in the regions where we operate to create maximum value for our company stakeholders. A unified IT strategy allows our people to communicate efficiently, share common IT services and protect Glencore from growing cyber threats.
