What is the MBE Programme, and why is now an exciting time to join as a Business Project Manager?
Over time, our business processes have grown increasingly complex, raising both risk and cost, while limiting our agility. Meanwhile, customer expectations and market demands continue to rise.
The Making Business Easier (MBE) Programme is a cornerstone of our drive for commercial and operational excellence, helping us manage our cost base more effectively and prepare for future growth.
The MBE Programme is focused on streamlining and simplifying core processes, improving access to high-quality business data, and investing in the right technologies to support these improvements. As a Business Project Manager, you’ll collaborate with colleagues across the organisation and champion best practices that elevate our ways of working.
What you'll be doing:
As a Business Project Manager at Greencore, you’ll play a key role in helping the business achieve its strategic goals. You will lead the successful delivery of the Revenue Growth Management (RGM) transformation initiative, a key component of the Commercial Excellence and Making Business Easier (MBE) programmes.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
