Job description

We’re Enterprise Mobility, a family-owned global leader in mobility services, including household brands like Enterprise Rent-A-Car. With a $35 billion turnover and nearly 90,000 employees across 95 countries, we have grown over 65 years from a pioneering startup to a worldwide enterprise.

Join us, and as the TargetJobs Graduate Employer of the Year and a Times Top 100 Graduate Employer, we will offer you the freedom to explore your potential and progress on your career path. After an initial virtual classroom orientation, you’ll be assigned to a branch for hands-on training, learning valuable skills from experienced mentors, many of whom started as graduates in our Management Training Programme, including our current CEO.

This approach helps everyone understand our business from the ground up and see how they contribute to our success. Our promote-from-within culture ensures a comprehensive training experience in management, finance, operations, sales, and customer service.

As you develop, more opportunities will become available. You can choose to advance within our Rental Operations managerial track, potentially becoming a Branch Manager in as little as two years, or explore other areas such as Human Resources, Accounting, Revenue Management, Sales, and Marketing.

We value diversity and encourage all employees to excel. We have been recognized on The Times Top 50 Employers for Women list for seventeen years, included in Stonewall’s Top 100 employers for LGBT inclusion, and acknowledged as a Disability Confident Leader, among other accolades.

Enterprise remains family-owned, with our CEO Chrissy Taylor, the third generation of the Taylor family to lead, providing stability and a long-term vision for our business and employees.

Responsibilities

As a Graduate Management Trainee, you will make impactful business decisions, develop new and maintain existing relationships, understand cost control, analyze your branch’s P&L, and learn how to run a profitable business. You will also deliver exceptional customer service, learning effective communication, influence, sales techniques, problem-solving, and conflict management skills.

You will have opportunities to market to local businesses, build lasting relationships, and learn how to mentor, train, and manage staff. Your development will be rewarded with pay increases and promotion opportunities.

Qualifications

• A Bachelor’s degree is preferred; professional experience can be considered as a substitute.
• You must hold a full manual UK driving licence; accommodations are available for applicants with disabilities who do not drive.
• No recent drug or alcohol-related offences on your driving record are permitted.
