Job description

We’re Enterprise Mobility, a family-owned, world-class portfolio of brands including household names like Enterprise Rent-A-Car. With a $35 billion turnover and nearly 90,000 team members across 95 countries, we have grown from a pioneering idea over 65 years ago to the global mobility leader we are today.

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 own career path. Ready to make your move?

After an initial virtual classroom-based orientation, you’ll be assigned to a branch for hands-on business training, learning valuable skills from capable mentors who were once in your shoes. Nearly all our full-time employees started as graduates in our Management Training Programme, including our current CEO.

This approach allows everyone to learn our business from the ground up and understand their role in our success. Our promote-from-within culture ensures a well-rounded training experience in management, finance, operations, sales, and customer service.

As you progress, more opportunities become available. Most choose to continue ascending within our Rental Operations managerial track, potentially becoming a Branch Manager in as little as two years. Alternatively, explore other exciting options within Enterprise, including Human Resources, Accounting, Revenue Management, Sales, Marketing, and more.

We encourage all employees to be their best, with diversity as a priority. We have been listed in The Times Top 50 Employers for Women for seventeen years, included in Stonewall’s Top 100 employers for LGBT inclusion, recognised as a Disability Confident Leader, part of the Social Mobility Employer Index, and named a Race Equality Responsible Business Champion by BITC.

Enterprise remains family-owned, with CEO Chrissy Taylor, the third generation of the Taylor family. This stability allows us to confidently look to the future, ensuring long-term success for our business, employees, and customers.

Responsibilities

As a Graduate Management Trainee, you will make impactful business decisions, develop new business, maintain relationships, understand cost control, read branch P&L statements, and learn how to run a profitable business. You will learn to deliver exceptional customer service, communicate effectively, influence, and interact with customers, vendors, and colleagues. Skills in sales, problem solving, and conflict management will enable you to build strong relationships with key decision-makers. You will also learn to mentor, train, develop, manage, and promote staff, with development rewarded through pay increases and promotions.

Qualifications

• A Bachelor’s degree is preferred; professional experience can be substituted if applicable.
• A full manual UK driving licence is required, with accommodations available for applicants with disabilities who do not drive.
• No drug or alcohol-related offences on your driving record within the last five years.
