Technical Training, Operational Excellence
Cruiserath Biologics
I initially began my career as a car mechanic and worked for 10+ years in that industry. A workplace injury steered me towards a career change, so I returned to college to study a 4-year BEng in Mechatronics at TUD Blanchardstown. I was the first recipient of the Engineers Ireland Engineering Excellence award for my academic performance. BMS are a diverse employer and gave me the opportunity to completely change my career path and join the business as a mature graduate. If you are looking for a challenging role, one which tests your adaptability to change and one which is rewarding, then I highly recommend considering the BMS Cruiserath Biologics Graduate Programme.
Simon Cameron
Associate Scientist
At BMS you are empowered to apply your individual talents and ideas so that employees can learn and grow together. The key word in that sentence is together and that even though you are an intern in the company, your voice and feedback is heard by your manager and fellow colleagues.
Nicola Thorne

The #BMSGraduateProgramme is a great way to experience different departments you may have an interest in for the future or to further your knowledge and skills in a particular area. With the freedom to pick your rotations, you are given the opportunity to tailor your own experience and develop skills and knowledge across a diverse range of roles. With so many different teams and roles available, I’m confident in saying that no two graduate experiences have been the same.
