Sahara Group invites young graduates for Graduate Trainee Programme
By Innocent Obasi
Sahara Group, a leading privately owned power, energy, gas and infrastructure conglomerate, has commenced receiving applications into its prestigious Graduate Management Trainee(GMT) programme.
The programme aimed to offer beneficiaries challenging and evolving careers, unique mentorship opportunities, multicultural exposure, entrepreneurial acumen, unorthodox learning and development, self-discovery and mastery, as well as volunteering platforms that promote sustainable development causes.
The conglomerate made this disclosure in a statement released by Moroti Adedoyin-Adeyinka, the group’s executive director.
Adedoyin-Adeyinka said that the programme provides fast-paced growth within the organisation evidenced by Sahara’s proven record of transforming young professionals into world-class experts.
“Today we have success stories of former GMTs who have grown into sundry leadership positions within the Group, reinforcing our commitment to continuous human capital transformation. Just like our previous GMT programs, each applicant that makes it through from this 2023 edition is set for a world of MAD opportunities in Sahara Group,” she said.
On the implementation plan, Ivie Imasogie-Adigun, group head(HR), said, that the Sahara Group GMT programme application would run from February 1st to February 15th, 2023, adding that it is open to all young graduates across the globe aged 25 and below.
“We cannot hold our excitement here at Sahara as every GMT cycle heralds the addition of uniquely gifted young professionals to the Sahara Family, who are then given peerless platforms to hone and grow their skills across the energy sector value chain,” Imasogie-Adigun said.
“Sahara’s business is spread across Africa, Asia, Europe, and the Middle East. Consequently, Sahara offers a global platform, and all our energy is geared towards making a difference. We call this being MAD, an attribute that continues to successfully drive Sahara’s vision of bringing energy to life responsibly,” she added.
On the Sahara Group GMT experience, Ejiro Gray, a participant of GMT 2007, who is now the director, governance and sustainability said: “Sahara Group is where you have the golden opportunity of discovering the best possible version of yourself. The GMT program I can confidently say, shaped and prepared me for what has been a remarkable journey. Every Sahara Group GMT is a potential world business leader.”
