GLOBAL GRADUATES PROGRAMME
JobID: NAI000280-EN
What is your passion? Whether you’re into soccer, swimming or skiing, at InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG), we are interested in YOU. We want people who apply the same amount of passion to their jobs as they do their hobbies – people who will help our core purpose to create ‘Great Hotels Guests Love’.
Who is IHG?
There’s never been a more exciting time to join IHG. With 7 brands and over 4,500 hotels across 100 countries and territories, we are experiencing phenomenal growth and are well on our way to redefining the industry. Our people are at the heart of our business and we are looking for talented graduates like you to be part of a dynamic and exciting company that values your passion and enthusiasm and encourages you to grow along with us.
What is The I-Grad Future Leaders Programme?
To us you’re not just a graduate, you’re our future leader. To get you there sooner, we have developed The I-Grad Future Leaders Programme; an 18 month management trainee programme designed for graduates who really want to fast-track their career in hospitality management. During the 18 months, you will…
Learn the fundamentals of how the hotel industry works
Develop skills and experience in hotel operations
Drive projects which contribute directly to the success of your hotel
Receive one-on-one coaching from the hotel’s General Manager
Gain leadership experience with an internationally recognised hotel brand
Be a part of the world’s fastest growing international hotel company
How is the I-Grad Future Leaders Programme structured?
The I-Grad Future Leaders programme has three phases:
Phase 1 – Learning the ropes
In the first six months you’ll learn how each of the functions within the hotel contributes to the overall success of the business. You’ll spend time working in each of the following teams:
Rooms Division
Food & Beverage
Sales & Marketing
Administration
Kitchen
Phase 2 – Choosing your own path
Once you’ve had a taste of all these different functions, it’s time to choose an area you’d like to specialise in. We’ll put together a six month supervisory-level programme for you where you’ll get to dive deeper into the functional area of your choice.
Phase 3 – Preparing for your future
Everything you’ve done in the programme to this point has been about setting you up for success. In the final phase, you’ll get the chance to work as a leader in your specialist department and you’ll experience what life after completing the I-Grad Future Leaders programme will be like. You’ll also commit to a project that you’ll own and drive during your six months with the department.
What makes the I-Grad Future Leaders Programme different?
The real difference between our graduate program and others in the industry is that we don’t assume we know what you want, we ask. Each Management Trainee Programme is designed to meet the development needs of each successful candidate and take into account previous experience. No two people are alike, just as no two hotels are alike. Your program will be tailored to suit both the individual needs of the hotel and your individual development needs and personal goals.
What training and development will I receive as a Management Trainee?
With the General Manager as your personal coach, you will contribute to the strategic direction of the business while learning key aspects of operational management. Your development will include…
On-going professional development including attendance of in house company training programs.
Distance learning with Cornell University.
Accelerated Leadership Development Training.
Detailed comprehensive performance review with feedback.
Exposure to a range of operational and managerial roles across departments.
What can I expect after programme completion?
Upon completion of the programme, our commitment is to ensure you are equipped to take on a Supervisor level role within the hotel.

A bachelors degree, or are due to complete a bachelors degree by April 2013
