The latest ����̽��Grad Academy saw 129 graduates from 32 countries travelling to the UK for an action-packed fortnight of learning.

The graduates spent two weeks finding out more about our business, undertaking a variety of sessions across areas including finance, supply chain, operations, regulation and marketing.

There were also sessions focusing on personal development, as well as lessons in leadership and Q&As with senior leaders including our Group Financial Controller, James Barrett and Group Head of Manufacturing, Corinne Burrows.

The grads’ main task was a business simulation competition where they had to ‘run’ their own business and present their strategy to senior ����̽��management.

Paulina Nainggolan, from ����̽��Indonesia, said: “Thanks to the Grad Academy, I’ve gained more insight and knowledge, which will be very important for my future career.”

Mashroor Faiyaz Khan, from ����̽��Bangladesh, added: “This wasn’t just a training session, it was such an interactive, engaging experience.”

The grads also enjoyed a trip to our London HQ, as well as a visit to our research and development hub in Southampton, UK, to find out more about our potentially reduced-risk products and the science behind our tobacco leaf process.
