• Opportunity to travel : BAE Systems has locations worldwide with our FLDPs primarily rotating to locations within the United States. Rotations are evaluated on an annual basis to ensure the rotation is robust and provides strong leadership support; and are a mix of 100% remote, hybrid, or 100% onsite, depending on the function & business need. First year rotations are finalized prior to the onsite recruiting event in October and communicated to candidates as part of the interview process.

Members of the program also complete a mix of technical and soft-skills training hosted through support from internal and external trainers.

Each participant is also assigned a mentor who will work to expose them to diverse and challenging experiences, while providing guidance in choosing rotations, career planning, and development.
• Personal growth : The program seeks to facilitate the growth of an individual's leadership skills and style through various training and networking opportunities. Participants attend annual week-long leadership development conferences. These conferences provide specialized leadership training and an opportunity for the FLDPs to meet executives and other leadership development program participants from around the company.
