Caroline Andrews, Chief People Officer at IAG Cargo said: “The logistics industry is one of the world’s most exciting and fastest moving. It is therefore crucial that we, at IAG Cargo, have a skilled, diverse, dynamic team ready to deliver innovative transport solutions for customers across the world.

“With hubs in London, Barcelona, Madrid and Dublin and offices across six continents, our Graduate Programme enables participants to travel and to gain not only experience, but also valuable insight and exposure to operations across a global business.

“In response to both the current needs of the business and feedback from participants we continuously build and develop the programme, which has become an industry leading platform to launch a career in logistics. Many alumni have secured full time employment with IAG Cargo which is testament to its success and indeed the hard work and commitment from our graduates.

“These individuals are playing a significant role within our business which transports goods from car parts to lifesaving vaccines to fresh fruit and vegetables on the 12,000 flights we offer a week, and I am very excited to welcome the 2025 intake to our team.”
