Upon graduating from college, Ben wasn’t quite sure what career would best align with his goals and aspirations. He knew he was interested in supply chain management but wanted to explore all that he could achieve in the field. The supply chain development program allowed him to do just that. With the program’s structure that enables participants to explore various parts of Shaw’s supply chain through six-month rotations, Ben was able to try different departments within supply chain management. Beyond expanding his knowledge of all things supply chain, Ben forged lifelong friendships with fellow program participants who eventually led him to his current position– a role he calls his perfect fit.   — Ben Justus Business Intelligence Manager for Integrated Customer Care
