Kraft Heinz is now taking applications for our 2027 Management Graduate Program . Our program aims to develop you into a future leader of our company. It is designed for ambitious talent who seek a performance‑based culture where they operate as owners, thrive as agents of change and channel their passion, curiosity and go‑getter attitude into doing better every day.

Commencing January 2027 in our Auckland office, our 12‑month program will see you join an ANZ cohort of other ambitious Graduates. You will learn directly from and work with our Kraft Heinz Executive Team and other senior leaders, work across a range of functions including Sales, Foodservice, Marketing, Finance, Operations, Supply Chain and People & Performance and travel to our factory sites to see exactly how our products get made.

Designed to broaden your knowledge of how a multinational food company operates, the 12‑month program includes :

  • Two 5‑month rotations across two functions of the business where you will take ownership of project‑managing and delivering a real Business Project with real business impact and a Business Placement where you will complete real work and develop a deep understanding of how one of our functions operates on a day‑to‑day basis.

At the conclusion of the 12‑month program, you will be placed into a meaningful role within one of our functions where you will be able to add immediate value.

  • International exposure – You’ll be part of an Australia & New Zealand cohort, as well our broader International Graduate Program
  • Exposure to the executive team and senior leaders – You will have opportunities to connect with and learn from the Executive team and other senior leaders in the ANZ business
  • Learning & Development – You will receive intensive training and exposure to different business units from day one
  • Mentorship & support – You will learn from our strongest leaders, with your own dedicated manager, mentor and buddy
  • Permanent contract – from the commencement of the Graduate Program
  • Highly competitive benefits
  • What you’ll bring :

  • Bachelor or Master’s Degree completed in 2025 or 2026 – all graduates from any discipline are encouraged to apply
  • Full, ongoing working rights in New Zealand at time of application
  • Versatility and willingness to work in any functional area, and relocate to different cities or countries
  • Maximum working experience : 1 year after graduation
