Talent Development Programme
The Schenker UK Talent Development Programme (TDP) aims at talented employees at the start of their professional growth, having high potential within either the leadership or the expertise scope.
Talent development programmes are just one example of positive and useful ways Schenker Ltd nurtures and helps its employee’s progress. Although there is training for all employees as well as further individual training, the Schenker UK Talent Development Programme (TDP) is aimed at talented employees who are at a relatively initial stage of their professional growth, having high potential to become either great leaders or superlative experts.
