When you join a technical training programme, we'll make sure you're fully supported.

This will help prepare you for biannual performance assessments in conjunction with your line manager.
As part of the programme, you'll also need to complete a log book of all development activities to ensure all learning opportunities are taken full advantage of. If required, you'll also get assistance with any necessary licensing.
Employment contracts typically last between 12 and 18 months depending on the nature of the role and Sappi's business requirements.
