The Project Graduate will develop strong project-delivery, stakeholder and project and portfolio management tool (Jira) skills, and gain a front-row seat on a career-defining programme.The role is a fixed term appointment aligned to the McLaren Automotive graduate programme but is not rotational – the graduate remains dedicated to the PMO throughout.
