2023 Technology Graduate Program (Jan 2023)

At Frucor Suntory we are hungry to make drinks better. We’re passionate about creating great-tasting drinks that have a positive impact on wellbeing and enjoyment.

We make, market and distribute a range of juices, fruit drinks, energy drinks, waters and soft drinks, many of which are household names throughout New Zealand and Australia. Our brands include the iconic ‘V’ energy drink, Fresh Up, Just Juice, h2go, Mizone, NZ Natural, Pepsi Max and Suntory BOSS Coffee.

Frucor Suntory sets out to attract the best people, and we know that once we have great people on board, we need to continuously develop their skill base and leadership mindset. We are committed to your personal growth and to providing you with the tools necessary to further your career.

You will be immersed into a two-year programme which will provide challenging assignments stretching the way you think, giving you exposure to a range of developmental and learning experiences that will help you understand our business, develop your career and give you leadership development/opportunities.

And yes, it will be part of your job to help us taste test new V flavours, so bring your best taste buds!

You’ll gain real experience while earning a competitive salary. There is no average day at Frucor Suntory and you’ll get to experience working in a truly innovative company.  

On our programme, you will have the opportunity to work in TechOps – Operations, TechOps – Design and Enable, various Value Streams and PMO.

Over the two years, you will work in cross-functional project teams working with different departments within the entire Frucor Suntory business. Along with exposure to leaders spending a week shadowing the Heads of Departments to see our leadership in action.
