Welcome to the Sysco GB Engineering Graduate Programme!

At Sysco, food is at the centre of everything we do. As a global leader in food service wholesale distribution we operate with over 76,000 colleagues across 10 countries worldwide. Driven by our purpose to connect the world to share food and care for one another, we’re proud to supply the expertise, products and partnerships that power every corner of the industry - from independent high street cafes to large‑scale corporate customers, and from hospitals and schools to pubs, restaurants and fine dining establishments across the UK.

Behind the scenes, our Engineering team plays a vital role in making all of this possible. They are responsible for the design of our sites, the engineering management of our fleet and onsite transport vehicles, and the facilities management that keeps our operations running safely and efficiently, and finally the sustainability of the site operations.

This is a programme for practical thinkers and proactive doers: people who thrive on understanding how systems work, who enjoy tackling technical challenges, and who can balance precision with pace in a busy operational environment. You’ll learn to manage competing priorities, communicate clearly across functions, and make sound engineering decisions that keep our operations moving and our customers served.

We’re looking for curious minds with a passion for engineering, a willingness to get hands-on, and the drive to make things work better. If you’re ready to develop your skills, influence meaningful operational outcomes, and help maintain the infrastructure that powers our customers’ success, this is the place for you.

Your journey starts here—let’s engineer something extraordinary.
