Job description

Sysco GB are currently recruiting for an Early Careers Coordinator to join the HR team on a 12 month Maternity cover basis.

The Early Careers Coordinator role is crucial to supporting Sysco GB’s Early Careers strategy by ensuring the effective delivery and continuous improvement of our early careers and apprenticeship programmes. By managing the day-to-day operations of these initiatives, and acting as first point of contact, the role helps build a strong pipeline of future talent, supports internal colleague development, and ensures compliance with apprenticeship funding requirements & legislation. This operational support means a strong learner experience, quick resolution of issues, and clear management of our external providers.

As we evolve our new early careers strategy, this role will also play a key part in designing and implementing new initiatives —such as school outreach, work experience, and graduate development programmes. The role’s emphasis on data tracking and analysis will ensure we can measure impact, identify trends, and make informed decisions that enhance programme effectiveness and return on investment. This work also links into our L&D, social responsibility and sustainability teams to drive our social mobility goals. Ultimately, this position supports our ambition to be an employer of choice for early talent and to future-proof our workforce in a competitive market.

This is a home-based role with occasional travel required.

You;

We are seeking a motivated individual with experience or transferable knowledge of apprenticeships, early careers, and work experience programmes.

A curious and proactive mindset is essential, with the ability to challenge processes and recommend improvements. You’ll thrive as part of a busy, high-energy team, balancing multiple priorities from day-to-day tasks to contributing to larger projects.
