Lantmännen's graduate trainee program continues to be at the top among university students – double top five placements in major survey

News, 2025

Lantmännen's Graduate Trainee Program has once again been named one of the most attractive trainee programs among university students. In Karriärföretagen's major survey, Lantmännen ranked second among social scientists and fourth among BSc Engineers. With this, Lantmännen has ended up in the top five for three years in a row.  

The interest in the program is strong and Lantmännen received a record number of applications on the last occasion, which underlines the company's position as an employer and the opportunities offered by the graduate trainee program. 

 
A platform for development and career 

"Our Graduate Trainee Program gives young talents a chance to explore, work with, and learn from the different parts of Lantmännen's operations. The different parts of the graduate trainee program – job rotations, training programs, study visits and more – serve as building blocks, which together create a holistic perspective and give the graduate trainees experiences that lay the foundation for their future careers," says Carina Eriksson, Head of Learning, Development & Graduate Trainee Program 

With focus on sustainability and innovation, and a business that spans the entire value chain, Lantmännen strives to create greater development opportunities and strengthen its attractiveness as an employer. 

 
Long-term work 

"Behind this success is dedicated work from the entire Lantmännen organization. We are very proud that our Graduate Trainee Program and our commitment for employer branding are being recognized and that we continue to be an attractive employer for future talents and existing employees. This award consolidates Lantmännen's position as one of the leading employers for students and young professionals who want to make a difference – from field to fork," says Linda Siljemark, Employer Branding Manager at Lantmännen.
