Cranswick: does its graduate programme sponsor a UK visa?

No published policyGraduate Programme (Food Industry, Commercial, Food Technical)

Unconfirmed. Cranswick publishes no sponsorship policy for its graduate programme, so we cannot state a firm answer. Cranswick, the FTSE listed pork, poultry and convenience food producer headquartered in Hessle, runs three graduate development programmes. The Food Industry Graduate Programme is the longest running, designed roughly ten years ago, and rotates across departments rather than fixing the graduate to one function. The Commercial Graduate Programme sits with the sales and marketing teams. The Food Technical Graduate Programme sits with the technical function that owns food safety and product integrity across the manufacturing sites. There is no published salary, no published degree requirement and no statement anywhere on the careers section about visa sponsorship or right to work. Entry for the next cycle is by a register your interest form rather than an open application.
