The Business

Tata Steel is one of the world’s top 10 steel producers. The combined group has an annual aggregate crude steel capacity of more than 33 million tonnes with approximately 80,000 employees across four continents. We’re part of the Tata Group, one of the largest, most diverse conglomerates in the world with businesses in the UK including Tata Steel, Jaguar Land Rover and Tetley Tea.

Sustainability is at the very heart of what we do and we are dedicated to managing our operations responsibly and to continuously improving our performance. Innovating for tomorrow, making a positive impact today.

Trostre – Packaging

Trostre Works has more than 600 people work at the Trostre site in Llanelli, Wales, manufacturing approximately 400,000 tonnes of tin, chrome and ‘polymer’ coated steels for the packaging industry every year. All steel packaging material produced at Trostre is 100% recyclable.

Water is essential for rinsing and cleaning steel which is destined for the food and beverage industry. More than 90% of the water supply is via the site’s own reservoir. Trostre has enacted a number of improvements to optimise water consumption which have taken it from levels of more than 40,000m3 per week to around 30,000m3 per week.

The site maintains close links with the community through various bursary awards and educational awareness programmes run in local schools and colleges. These aim to promote sustainability, environmental responsibility, life cycle and particularly our products which are 100% recyclable. The site is adjacent to RAMSAR, SSSI & SAC areas, and is subject to stringent checks and legislation for their protection.

The Role

As the world stands at the threshold of a new industrial revolution – the transition to low carbon manufacturing – the steel industry faces challenges, but also opportunities.

The Manufacturing function is responsible for keeping our sites running as smoothly and efficiently as possible. As a key member of that function you will be working in a fast paced and challenging environment with the ultimate aim of ensuring plant performance is optimised and that production targets are achieved in a safe and timely manner; and our high quality products are delivered to our customers on time.

We’re passionate about achievement, excellence and breakthrough thinking, and people at every level here have a thirst for developing their knowledge. You’ll embrace change with enthusiasm, take ownership of issues and inspire others towards a culture of innovation.

The Candidate

You must have at least a 2:1 degree and ideally have some relevant work experience, perhaps gained during a placement. Driven, passionate and tenacious, your strong sense of personal accountability is bolstered by your eye for the bigger picture. Outstanding problem-solving skills and the ability to inspire trust and build engagement are also essential.

The Graduate Programme

There are few organisations who can offer the scale, complexity and diversity of career opportunities that you will find at Tata Steel. Throughout the programme you will gain experience of a wealth of systems, operations, methods and tools.

You will be supported by experienced professionals with excellent on the job training. You will be in charge of your graduate development whilst having access to different training opportunities both to develop your soft skills and your technical skills.

You can expect to be challenged every day, but you’ll have the opportunity to work alongside professional experts who can help you achieve and exceed your own ambitions. Be part of our team and make the difference together.

Tata Steel offers a development programme, with a 70-20-10 model of learning and the opportunity to achieve your first appointment from the 12 month mark, dependent on your progress.

During that first 12 months, we will give you real projects to deliver, along with formal training to help you develop your programme skills, influence people and manage effectively. During this time, you will have opportunities to work collaboratively with various departments to discover the best solutions whilst ensuring solutions proposed align with business strategic goals.
