Job Description:

The Finance Leadership Development Program (FLDP) is a two-year global program focused on developing future business leaders with strong finance leadership. To accomplish this mission, participants in the FLDP are placed in positions where they will be challenged, building core accounting and financial analysis skillsets. FLDP participants will have the opportunity to learn and demonstrate leadership skills in areas such as teamwork, risk-taking, and initiative, while demonstrating their core values and adherence to the Johnson & Johnson Credo.

FLDP participants generally rotate through 2 assignments in various roles within Johnson & Johnson during the program. During the rotations, FLDP participants will be exposed to various functional areas. Each assignment provides an excellent learning experience and an opportunity for FLDP participants to utilize their leadership skills and bring new perspectives for change and process improvement to the J&J companies. Being an FLDP participant exposes you to an expanded network of contacts.

FLDP offers five weeks of training during the two year program to assist in the development of our future leaders. The courses are taught and led by internal J&J management as well as external instructors. In training, the FLDP class enhances their written and oral presentation skills, problem-solving techniques, analytical skills, leadership skills and much more. Overall, training covers areas that are critical to success at Johnson & Johnson, and gives the FLDP participants an opportunity to gain the skills necessary to become leaders for tomorrow.
