Take your experience into a different business environment

See how US teams approach customers, projects and commercial decisions. Build on your background in finance, engineering, technology or operations while earning with your employer.

Translate regional experience into operational detail

For applicants based in Dubai, Abu Dhabi or elsewhere in the UAE, explain the processes behind your experience: inventory planning, supplier coordination, shipping documentation or operational analysis. A US placement should develop your understanding of a new operation. Share your current responsibilities, qualifications and notice period when you apply.

The work you could do

We match your background to the employer and role. Typical areas of work include:

  • Analyse inventory and supply-chain information
  • Research procurement options and processes
  • Support logistics planning and documentation
  • Explore import/export processes and trade-compliance research

Prepare for your employer interviews

Supply chain, logistics, business, economics, engineering and relevant operations experience.

Describe projects involving forecasting, inventory, procurement, operations research or process improvement. Explain the available information, your method and the limits of the result. If your experience is operational, show how it connects to analytical responsibilities you want to develop.

Your paid placement, arranged before departure

Aureus prepares you for employer interviews, secures your paid placement and coordinates the J-1 process. Your proposal sets out the programme fee and guarantee before you enrol; your employer offer confirms the role, hours, location and pay. Budget separately for travel and living costs where these are not included.
