What is the Airbus Global Graduate Programme?
Airbus is one of the world’s largest aerospace companies. Its Global Graduate Programme hires new graduates into permanent roles and grows them over two years, with a clear development plan and the chance to rotate between teams and, where available, between countries.
You are an employee from the start, not a temporary intern. That means a real salary, real projects, and a real career path inside Airbus at the end.
What you get
- A permanent employment contract with Airbus from day one
- A full salary and employee benefits
- A structured two-year development programme
- National rotations, and international rotations where available
- Mentoring and training toward a long-term Airbus career
Fields you can join
- Aerospace engineering, aerodynamics, and propulsion
- Data, digital, software, and cybersecurity
- Finance, business, and commercial
- Procurement, supply chain, and operations
- Human resources and project management
Who can apply
- You hold a relevant university degree, or an equivalent qualification, and you have graduated before the programme starts.
- You have no more than about three years of relevant work experience.
- You have strong English. Other languages, especially French, help for some roles.
- You are willing to work at the programme’s locations and to relocate.
One plain point: Airbus roles need the right to work at the site you join, so check the work-authorization and visa details for your chosen country, since sponsorship varies by role and location.
Is there an age limit?
No age limit is stated. What matters is that you are a recent graduate with the right degree and within the experience range.
Do I need IELTS or TOEFL?
No test is listed. You need strong working English, and Airbus checks this in the application and interviews rather than by asking for an IELTS or TOEFL score.
Can I apply with average grades?
Airbus looks at your degree, your skills, and your fit with the role more than a single grade. Show the projects, internships, and technical or business skills that match the field you want, and let real work carry your application.
