PROGRAMME CONTENTS IN DETAIL.

Local assignments and working abroad.

The programme consists of four assignments in various departments. Two assignments take place in the respective home country (for a duration of five months each) and two abroad (for a duration of three months each). During your assignments, you gain insight into business processes, strategy, culture, and the BMW Group brands from both a local and global perspective.

Networking.

Establishing an excellent international network, as well as working on strategic and operational projects in three different countries provides a solid basis for a successful international career at the BMW Group.

Mentoring.

As a GLDP participant you will have an experienced manager who acts as your personal mentor and supports your personal and professional development.

Placements in production, dealership and customer-service departments.

Broaden your horizon and get to know the BMW Group in total: During short-term placements (approx. 1 week each), you gain insights into production/assembly and sales/customer service to learn more about processes and understand our customers.

Joint team projects.

You will join dynamic teams to tackle exciting and varied projects – during your assignments but also in joint team projects with other trainees around the world.

Courses in the BMW Group Training Academy.

Discover your strengths and develop further – based on your individual goals. Our BMW Group Training Academy supports you with that.
