This 18-month program offers a truly unique, end-to-end experience of the wool supply chain -from fibre through to fashion - giving graduates an unmatched foundation to launch their career within the wool industry.
Commencing in March each year, the program is primarily based at AWI’s head office in Sydney. Graduates gain exposure across all areas of the business, including On-Farm Research and Development, Processing Innovation, Education and Extension, Consultation and Engagement, Global Marketing, Digital, Measurement and Evaluation, and Business Services.
A standout feature of the program is the opportunity for international rotations. Graduates gain global exposure by visiting key supply chain hubs across Asia and Europe. In addition, the program includes ongoing professional development to support long-term career growth within the industry.
The program is designed for graduates from a broad range of disciplines, particularly those with a background in or connection to the Australian wool industry.
A Message from John Roberts - CEO
‘‘Having worked closely with the past and current graduates, I’ve seen firsthand the value of having such an all-encompassing program within the industry, covering the full supply chain, and the benefits it provides the successful graduates in enhancing their career within wool. We continue to focus on attracting and retaining the top talent and the program is just one of the mechanisms we have in creating a talent pipeline and future proofing human resources in the industry.’’
