Not many companies can tell you in five words why you should join them. But with Swire, integrity, humility, endeavour, excellence and continuity are the values that are integrated into every facet of our work and embodied by every Swire employee. These values are the very reason why our employees join and stay at Swire.

"Swire is a company that conducts its businesses with a lot of integrity." − Anna Thompson

Integrity is central to our long history of setting standards on a global scale. Employees hold high expectations for each other to deliver the level of quality Swire has built its reputation on. As a management trainee, you must be prepared to adapt quickly to new situations and maintain the utmost honesty and care in everything you do. You should relish variety and the challenge of maintaining the highest quality of ethics across diverse roles and situations.

"The working environment at Swire is very down-to-earth and democratic." − Cheung Lap Ting

Humility is essential to the success of each project and to the growth of every trainee and employees. Management trainees share a desire to learn and be challenged throughout their careers, with the knowledge that they must be humble and receptive to guidance from others. In turn, managers and mentors are patient and readily share their advice and experience.

"Swire exercises a lot of due diligence to achieve excellence." − Emma Zhang

We rely on the endeavour of our employees and expect management trainees to be eager, pro-active, and ready to think on their feet. Swire allows people to take ownership of their work, as management trainees receive real responsibility from the start, and have many opportunities to take on progressively challenging roles. Our most valuable assets are the people whose commitment, professional attitude and outstanding efforts have kept Swire flourishing for almost 200 years.

"While we care about results, we care more about achieving them in the right way." − Edward Higgs

Swire's commitment to excellence is a large part of its longevity. Constantly striving for improvement, we are passionate about achieving the best possible outcomes. Management trainees must be attentive to detail, self-motivated to seek out new solutions, and prepared to do the highest quality of work and inspire it in others.

"The ability to focus on the future is what makes us different." − Karen Ou

Continuity keeps us moving forward while remaining true to our history. With an eye on the big picture, we understand how each person, each task, and each piece of a project contributes to creating a responsible and sustainable business for the long-term.

We are looking for people who are ready to grow and develop as leaders and be flexible enough to follow opportunities as they arise. We create a nurturing and healthy work environment, prioritise our trainees' career development, encourage them to actively participate in corporate volunteer work and strike a comfortable balance between work and life. You should be open and honest with yourself about whether Swire is right for you as you embark on a career.

When you join us, we will support you every step of the way.
