2024 Angus Foundation NH Foods Cadetship Applications Open
With NH Foods Brand Partner, Chef Jason Roberts on site at the 2024 Angus Youth Roundup to deliver the ‘Joy of Eating’, it was the perfect time to announce that the Angus Foundation NH Foods Cadetship is back for 2024.
The NH Foods Cadetship will provide the recipient with an authentic and valuable experience of the industry and the company’s core activities: breeding, feedlotting, production, marketing, and sales.
During the cadetship, the successful candidate will experience the day-to-day operations of Whyalla Beef, Australia’s most modern and technologically advanced feedlot. Supplementing the feedlot experience will be time spent at two of the company’s processing plants: Oakey (based in Southern QLD, it is one of the largest in Australia) and Wingham (located on the mid north coast of NSW).
Time in the company’s Sydney head office is also a feature, including exposure to the marketing and sales activities of the branded beef programs. The recipient will have exposure to key players in the industry to join their network and with potential to be a long-term NH Foods Australia employee.
The cadetship will take place over a four-week period, with NH Foods Australia to work together with the recipient to create an individualised development program that suits their interests.
Marcus Oldham Rural Leadership Program
Following their placement with NH Foods, the successful recipients will conclude their cadetship by completing the Marcus Oldham Rural Leadership Course.
The Marcus Oldham Rural Leadership Program is an intensive five-day workshop conducted on the college campus at Geelong, Victoria and is recognised as one of the longest running rural leadership programs in the nation.
