We are reimagining the glassmaking process, we are not afraid to push boundaries as we transform an industry that has manufactured glass in nearly the same way for over 100 years. We threw away the playbook and went about designing and implementing new technology, innovating processes and bringing new benefits to our customers. This is just the beginning as we expand our offering and implement future technologies across our operations.
With nearly 19,000 employees and an unparalleled footprint spanning almost 64 plants in 18 countries, O-I is a truly global maker of glass packaging.

As the UK Energy Leader, you will work closely with plant leadership teams, engineering, operations, maintenance and regional stakeholders to champion energy best practice, implement energy reduction projects and ensure effective monitoring and reporting of energy performance. You will act as the key energy subject matter expert for the UK and represent the organisation in regional and global energy forums.
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.
