The Product Supply graduate programme

Novo Nordisk’s graduate programme in Product Supply is your direct path to launch a life-changing career, offering you a unique chance to use your recently-acquired master's degree to make a difference to patients and begin your journey to the top in a global pharmaceutical company: Novo Nordisk, the world leader in diabetes care.

This graduate programme will provide you with tasks, tools, training and feedback within LEAN and leadership. You will join an intensive learning environment and accelerate your skills in driving continuous improvements of business. Our aim is to strengthen your potential for a leadership position in the future.

Scope of the programme
We offer 1 programme based in Denmark and 4 local programmes based in China, Brazil, France and the US. All graduates will be part of the PS graduate community.

During the 2-year journey of the programme you will enter 3 different rotations, one of them abroad:

If based in Denmark two rotations will take place here, while one rotation will take place at one of the international production sites
If based in China, Brazil, France or the US, two rotations will take place there and one in our headquarters in Denmark

The change in rotations will give you an invaluable insight into international business processes, a global professional network and strengthen your ability to adapt and perform in many different situations.

After successfully completing the programme, you will have the best conditions for embarking on your career at Novo Nordisk with a permanent position – perhaps as a 1st line manager or another leadership pipeline position.
