About Us

Mondi is a global leader in sustainable packaging and paper, employing over 30,000 people across more than 30 countries. Through innovation, operational excellence and responsible resource management, we help our customers create better, more sustainable solutions.

At Mondi, our people are at the heart of our success. As we continue building future capabilities, we're reimagining how learning, skills and leadership development support our long-term strategy.

This is a unique opportunity to shape the future of learning across a truly international organisation.
