- With its Summer Jobs initiative, the company will hire children of employees who are in their final years of secondary school or at university with contracts of up to 4 weeks between July and August
BERGÉ highlights the importance of first summer jobs and redirects them to help develop vocations in logistics among young people. The result is Summer Jobs, which, following its success in 2024, is being offered again this year so that workers’ children and siblings can work in July and August on contracts of up to four weeks.
The requirements are minimal: all you need is to have a mother or father working at BERGÉ (the offer is also extended to siblings), be between 16 and 24 years old and be in the final years of secondary school or at university.
In total, there will be 36 participants in the programme in its 2025 edition, who will be able to gain work experience in areas such as office management, human resources, finance, administration, operations, technology, procurement, and the legal and commercial departments. It will take place at the company’s headquarters in Alcobendas (Madrid), as well as at the branches in Barcelona, Bilbao, Huelva, Cádiz, Avilés and Zaragoza.
The young people will be accompanied by tutors who will welcome them at the place of work, explain their duties and the area in which they will be working and who will facilitate constant and direct contact to answer any questions.
A few months ago, BERGÉ received the “Logistics with a Purpose” award for this youth employability initiative. Consequently, for María Elena Sanz, Chief People Officer at BERGÉ, “the logistics sector is recognising the usefulness and relevance of Summer Jobs. For BERGÉ, it is a commitment to help strengthen and make the logistics sector more competitive, and we transfer this contribution to Spanish industry as a whole.”
