Program

Summary:

Our 18-month development program provides participants a full-time operational role, designed to improve their manufacturing skills and exposure to Saint‑Gobain North America. Participants will be located at one singular manufacturing plant for 18 months and will be involved with quarterly travel to other Saint‑Gobain manufacturing sites in North America. The time split between local site projects and EOM program activities is 80:20 respectively.

Classroom-based E‑learnings, hands‑on action‑based learning in operational environments as well as a plethora of networking opportunities, are just some of the activities in place designed to accelerate your career development and future career growth. These trainings and quarterly travel opportunities are a requirement for program completion and full participation should be given, except for extenuating circumstances. While start dates for EOM program participants may vary, program activities kickoff each year in July and end 18 months later in December of the following year.

Upon successful completion of the program, EOM Engineers will be considered for a final placement role within their host business. Placement discussions begin approximately halfway through the program to provide ample time for the participant, host business, and Human Resources team to align on long-term career goals and potential opportunities across Saint‑Gobain's network of nearly 160 sites throughout North America.

Provided performance expectations are met, participants will receive a designated final placement offer from their host business; however, employees remain free to pursue other opportunities within Saint‑Gobain should they choose not to accept that offer.
