Our graduate scheme is the Halma Catalyst Programme and offers a unique experience to work in our companies across the world. The purpose of the Halma Catalyst Programme is to develop high-calibre, high-potential graduates into future leaders for Halma's operating companies and business units, within 5-7 years of joining the programme.
We’re looking for talented individuals with a Bachelor's degree or higher in a technical, engineering, or science discipline who are:
We are interested in a broad range of technical, engineering and scientific subjects. You can see from our website that our products involve many technologies and applications that are helping to grow a safer, cleaner, healthier future for everyone, every day.
We are looking for people who are practical and who want to see results. If you want to use your technical knowledge to develop products or improve manufacturing processes, then you are going to fit in well. If you are keen on a career in fundamental scientific research, then we are not for you.
Work experience is not essential, but let us know what you have gained from any work you have undertaken or other experiences you have had outside of education.
We value diversity and we welcome people of any nationality to work for us. We are running this programme in parallel in the UK and the US.
Although there will be a chance to work in many other countries during the programme, you will be employed by Halma in either the UK or the US during the programme, so you need the right to work there. That means you must be a citizen or have a suitable visa or work permit. We will help with visa applications and sponsorship where possible.
We are offering a competitive salary, benefits and sign-up bonus in every region.
We are a global organisation and require a globally mobile workforce. You will be encouraged to choose at least one placement overseas. You will also have the option to take up placements with a proportional amount of travel. Travel overseas will also be required to attend four residential training modules.
Throughout the programme, you will have technical and non-technical training opportunities. Each placement will provide you with experience and training in a different functional area of the business. Furthermore, there will be four training modules throughout the programme, with a focus on both personal and professional development. You are also encouraged to take part in any other training or development opportunities which may arise.
At the beginning of each rotation, you and your manager will determine your goals for the project. At the end of each rotation, your manager must complete a review with you, following a form set out by Halma.
The Halma Catalyst Programme manager will also speak with you one-to-one at least twice per rotation. These measures, in combination with informal reviews with your managers and mentors through the placements, allow you to track progress and development throughout the course of the programme.
We pride ourselves on promoting individuals based on merit. It is possible to progress quickly within our organisation. Training and development opportunities within Halma continue at each career stage up to senior executive levels. We think you have excellent career prospects here.
We will offer you a job provided you have demonstrated your commitment to us throughout the programme. We will have a range of opportunities within our companies and business units, and we will do our best to match you in terms of responsibilities and location.
First roles could be in innovation, product management, business development or manufacturing. Our aim will be to work with you to find the right position, taking into account your particular career aspirations and opportunities available across our group.
All our companies are interested in offering jobs to Halma Catalyst Graduates on completion of this programme.
