ES Finance Leadership Development Program

About the Leadership Development Program

How does it feel to work on a team driven to make a big impact? Empowering. We believe your career should always be growing. And that's exactly what it will do at BAE Systems as part of our Leadership Development Program (LDP). The LDP is designed to accelerate the development and career of highly-motivated entry level candidates who aspire to achieve their leadership potential. This is accomplished through challenging and rewarding rotational assignments, technical and leadership training, advanced education, leadership opportunities and exposure, and mentorship. You'll hit the ground running with a company truly committed to your growth as you enjoy a special camaraderie on a team dedicated to protecting what really matters.

The FLDP is a three-year rotational program designed to develop high potential, entry-level individuals into future leaders. You'll have the opportunity to experience assignments in several operational functions, business areas, and product groups nationwide. Rotations for this role begin in June 2027.

As an Finance Leadership Development Program (FLDP) participant, you will gain:

• Experience: The FLDP consists of three, one-year rotations; each with increasing responsibility. It is designed to provide a varied set of experiences within the Finance function. FLDP participants are also exposed to a variety of networking opportunities and strategic project initiatives.
• Flexibility: The FLDP provides a great deal of flexibility and choice for program participants. This flexibility includes FLDP participant input of 2nd and 3rd rotational assignments and/or geographic location.
• Education: Participants are required to complete a graduate degree on a part-time basis. The school and specific degree (MBA, etc.) is left up to the candidate, providing it is applicable to the business. BAE Systems provides tuition assistance for this degree.
• Opportunity to travel: BAE Systems has locations worldwide with our FLDPs primarily rotating to locations within the United States. Your first rotation will be at one of our major locations (typically one of our southern NH sites). These assignments can change based on business need. Your second and third rotations may be at any of our locations nationwide.
• Mentorship: A mentor is assigned to each FLDP participant to expose them to a variety of challenging experiences, while providing guidance in choosing rotations, career development, and off-program placement.
• Personal growth: The program seeks to facilitate the growth of an individual's leadership skills through an annual, week-long leadership development conference (LDC). This conference provides personalized leadership training as well as an opportunity to network with senior BAE Systems executives and other leadership development program participants across the company.

Because this role involves a combination of collaborative/in-person and independent work, it will take the form of onsite work format. To be considered for this opportunity, applicants must be willing to reside within a commutable distance from the site in which they will primarily support (Southern NH, initially).

Required Education, Experience, & Skills

• This position is open to applicants with varying levels of experience. To be considered for an FLDP I, you must have at least a bachelor's degree with a business related focus. To be considered for an FLDP II, you must have a master's degree.
• Demonstrated leadership qualities
• Ability and willingness to relocate and work at various sites
• Superior communication skills
• Achievement in non-academic pursuits such as athletics, clubs and organizations, special projects, military service, and prior work experience
• Capacity and motivation for hard work
• Must be eligible to obtain a Secret Clearance.
