Finance Graduate Program - Sofia/Varna 2026

Why this job matters

What You’ll Become a Part Of

At CCEP, one of our core strategic priorities is to attract, develop, and retain exceptional and diverse talent. Our Finance Graduate Program is designed to bring this vision to life by building a strong pipeline of future Finance leaders and experts.

We believe in your potential from day one. Throughout this two‑year program, you’ll be challenged, supported, and empowered to grow—both professionally and personally. You will be paired with an experienced mentor (typically a Director or VP) who will guide you, share insights, and help you make the most of your development journey.

You will also benefit from a dedicated Learning & Development roadmap, including:

A structured training curriculum aligned with our expectations for future leaders

An Individual Development Plan (IDP) tailored to your goals

Opportunities to participate in role‑specific and programme‑specific skill-building activities

What To Expect

Over the course of two years, you will complete 4–6 month rotations across different teams within our Finance organisation. These rotations are designed to give you a broad and practical understanding of how Finance supports business performance.

To maximize your learning, one rotation will take place in another CCEP market in Europe, providing invaluable international exposure.

Across your placements, you may rotate through areas such as:

• Finance Operations (Shared Services or local Business Units)
• Internal Audit
• Procurement
• Financial Risk & Controlling
• Additional project work depending on business priorities

By the end of the program, you will have gained experience across Financial Management, Operations, Strategy, and Business Partnering—preparing you for a future leadership role or a specialist role within one of our Finance functions.

• Be fluent in English
• Bring motivation, curiosity, and proactive ambition to develop yourself—and our business
