What advice would you give to someone applying to this role?

Only apply if you like the fast paced environment of FMCG and feel you would thrive and enjoy it. If you believe you are a suitable candidate, then ABF really appreciate people to really be themselves and they will look for potential. When applying for customer development, be prepared to complete executive roles which are not exactly customer facing but give you great exposure to what the future in ABF could look like.

Do you have any interview tips?

ABF want to know that you are adaptable, approachable and conscientious. Think of real life examples where you have shown the particular skill sets they say they are looking for- there are ABF wide ones, but also function specific- so for sales- self-motivation, drive, enthusiasm, passion etc. Again, be yourself but you need to come prepared- know how the graduate scheme works, what you think you will be doing, how ABF works- its structure and where the grocery businesses fit in with that. A bit of commercial awareness is important too- you need to show you are interested in the sector!
