Stena Line Graduate Programme 2026 - Launch Your Career Where It Matters the most
You’ve invested years into your education. Now you want more than just a job. You want impact, responsibility, and a real start to your career.
At Stena Line, you are here to make a difference. We are looking for people who see opportunities where others see routines. People who question how things are done. People who combine business thinking with integrity and curiosity.
If you’re finishing (or recently finished) a degree in supply chain management, logistics, business, hospitality or a related field, and you want to work at the heart of international trade and transport – let us know!
What You Will Experience
We connect countries and people across Europe. Behind every sailing is a chain of complex operations and logistics, commercial strategy, care and dedication. Safety, sustainability, customer satisfaction, and operational excellence are not buzzwords for us. They are business critical.
As a family-owned company, we believe long-term. That applies to our vessels, our investments, and our people.
During the 18 months of the Graduate Programme you will:
- Rotate across commercial functions locally and internationally
- Work on projects
- Build a strong international network
- Develop your skills in communication, project management, and business acumen
- Receive mentorship and structured support throughout
Your rotations are tailored to your strengths and our strategic priorities. We expect high performance and in return, you get trust, responsibility, and the freedom to drive real change.
Who You Are
At Stena Line your personality matters as much as how good you are at what you do. Regardless of your role, welcoming, caring and reliable guides you in your everyday work and the challenges you face.
We believe you’re curious about how things work — and how they can work better. You ask questions, look for the bigger picture and confidently challenge assumptions in a constructive way.
You don’t wait to be told what to do — you take initiative. You’re driven to make an impact, own your development and push ideas forward. You speak up, test new approaches and step outside your comfort zone to make things happen.
Qualifications
- Degree in supply chain management, logistics, business, hospitality or a related field
- Have studied or worked abroad and are comfortable in international environments
- Are motivated by complex logistics, maritime operations, and want to build a long-term career in an industry that moves the world
- Challenge assumptions instead of accepting them
- Have no more than two years of work experience after your degree
You must have full professional proficiency in English and be able to start in September 2026 in one of our key locations (Belfast, Dublin, Riga, Gdynia, Hamburg/Rostock, or Hoek van Holland). Travel is expected within the role.
This is a full-time 18 month temporary role within Stena Line's commercial organisation. To apply, please register your profile and send in your application in English as soon as possible but no later than 5th of April, 2026. We are having ongoing selection, so do not wait with your application. To ensure the secure and structured processing of your personal data, we only accept applications submitted through our online recruitment system.
Please note that we kindly decline any offers from recruitment or staffing agencies regarding this recruitment.
