The challenge

The jump from college to your first working role can feel like a leap. Brambles had built a Graduate Development Program to help their new recruits hit the ground running – and they knew coaching was the perfect support system as these grads got up to speed.

Growing a talent pipeline

The Graduate Development Program isn’t just a way to help high-potentials build the skills they need to succeed. It’s also a way to attract brilliant thinkers straight out of their undergrad degrees or graduate school, so they can grow at Brambles as they grow as people. 

Our coaches turned this growth into a smooth trajectory, helping grads to:

  • Define their career paths and set goals to get there

  • Hone the skills they’d need to reach a leadership level at Brambles

  • Self-reflect on the progress they were making as they made it

My coach has given me a new confidence

“Having the opportunity to identify goals and objectives and having a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity was something that I was really excited about when I initially found out that I would receive coaching. It’s something that someone at my level at the company doesn’t always get access to having just a few years of experience. My coach has given me a confidence I will value for the rest of my career”
