246 jobs in Scotland and Northern Ireland including Glasgow and Edinburgh

The world’s largest vehicle rental mobility company is launching one of the UK’s biggest graduate recruitment campaigns this year.

Enterprise Rent-A-Car will recruit 1,454 graduates across its regional network of 450+ rental branches located all over the UK over the next 12 months. It is also recruiting 450 undergraduates for 12-month industrial placements in retail, HR, revenue management, legal and marketing teams.

The campaign launches to support growing demand for vehicle rental in towns and communities across the UK looking for low-cost, low-emission and convenient motoring.

People can apply from any university, degree and attainment level. Enterprise recruits based on potential and is looking for people who can demonstrate customer service, teamwork and leadership skills.

Employees on placements can return to Enterprise after graduation and enter straight into a management role, having completed the training programme on placement. Management Trainees could become a Branch Manager within just two years.

With more than 450 branches across the UK, within 10 miles of 93.5% of the UK population, applicants can choose to start their Enterprise career anywhere across the country, both in cities and in smaller, more rural areas.

Graduates who join the company’s award-winning Management Training Programme rapidly gain valuable experience across all areas of business management. This includes customer service, operations, sales, marketing and finance, in an entrepreneurial culture that empowers trainees by giving them real responsibility early in their career. 

Ashley Hever, Enterprise Rent-A-Car’s Talent Acquisition Director (Eh? – Ed.), explains: “The Management Training Programme is the starting point to long term careers at Enterprise that can take people to the very top of the business. Most of our country heads started their career as a Management Trainee, and so did I. Once you’re on board, the sky’s the limit.

“This programme is an outstanding opportunity to develop the real-world skills and experience that this year’s graduates may feel they need, as their university years included long periods of remote learning. If you’ve got a degree and the entrepreneurial drive to take responsibility and be a leader, come and say hello to us at one of our events.” 

With branches throughout every region of the UK, Enterprise Rent-A-Car’s graduate Management Trainees can choose to work close to home or head off to pastures new, as they are not tied to expensive cities or obliged to move far away.

This year’s recruits will join Enterprise at a time when transport strategy is in the spotlight, providing exciting opportunities to shape the future of mobility. Businesses and public sector bodies are looking to broaden their travel options to reduce emissions and improve efficiency.

Enterprise is working on exciting solutions and expanding into new markets to meet these opportunities, including Mobility-As-A-Service (MaaS), providing a key link in the connected travel chain and encouraging people to consider shared alternatives to car ownership. 

Enterprise becomes part of the neighbourhoods in which it operates by recruiting locally, enabling a deeper understanding of local customers’ needs and strengthening its ties within the local community.
