Overview
The Operations Talent Program (OTP) is a graduate program designed for brilliant new graduates to accelerate their growth toward dynamic career opportunities within EssilorLuxottica’s Global Operations.
The Operations Talent Program places a strong focus on digital transformation, data integration and smart technologies, fostering a new generation of tech-driven leaders.
Locations and duration
The program is held in different Operations Hubs: Italy (Agordo and Milan), France (Créteil, southeast of Paris), USA (Dudley), Thailand (Rayong), Brazil (Duque de Caxias) and China (Dongguan) and will last a total of 2 years.
You will be assigned to a specific hub based on your interests, qualifications as well as business requirements (specific roles are located differently among Italy and France). You will start in November 2025 and, over the two years, you will explore the expansive world of operations, learn a range of industry topics and experience the industrial environment where technology, innovation and product-passion sit center-stage. After the 2 years of the program, you will have the chance to continue growth at EssilorLuxottica, either within the same function or in international locations.
How is it structured?
From day-1 you will be assigned to one of the Operations & Product Functions (such as Manufacturing, R&D Lenses and SmartEyewear, Wearable Manufacturing, Business Process Improvement, Automation, Cybersecurity) while alongside being involved in different training activities. After one year you will have a job rotation within the same function, which will give you the chance to expand your vision and learn from different areas, acquire new technical knowledge, and be guided by inspiring leaders.
To boost your professional growth, the on-the-job development will be integrated with a training path on different topics. You will begin with the Academy which will take the first six months and will give the big picture of the Operations while laying the groundwork for the following months of learning. During this period, you will be facilitated to get engaged with the program and the Company, while creating a strong community made up by bold relationships with the other trainees. You will then deepen various management topics with top-notch European Business School which will foster the development of key strategic skills for a career inside the Operations. Lastly, it will be time to apply your knowledge with an individual Project Work, an opportunity to work on an innovative project and present it to Leaders.
