Program description

Shape the future of Animal Health supply. Build the skills that will shape yours.

In Animal Health Global Supply, we make sure our vaccines and medicines reach animals, and the people who care for them, reliably, safely, and sustainably.

Our ambition is bold: to become the leading animal health supply organization. One that executes with excellence, delivers on its commitments, empowers its people, and is ready for the future.

Since the launch of Supply4Growth in 2024, we’ve made strong progress toward a more reliable, resilient supply foundation. The next step? Turning supply into a true competitive advantage for Boehringer Ingelheim. To achieve this and fuel Boehringer’s broader strategic priorities, we launched our first‑ever Animal Health Global Supply Management Trainee Program in 2025; designed to strengthen, accelerate, and inspire the next generation of leaders.

This program gives you the rare opportunity to explore the AH business from genuinely diverse perspectives. You will design your own path, drive meaningful projects, and rotate through departments that represent every critical part of the end‑to‑end supply chain.

Your Journey, Your Impact
As a Management Trainee, you are not only encouraged, but expected to explore, experiment, and network. You can lead cross‑functional projects across Animal Health and collaborate with teams such as Global Strategic Marketing (GSM), Global Innovation (GI), and Global Commercial Business (GCB).

Your rotations are flexible. Your projects are impactful. And you’ll definitely find something you love, because the possibilities to shape your journey (and your future career) are truly limitless.

If you’re driven by curiosity, passionate about problem‑solving, and excited to build the future of global supply, this program is where you belong.
