Careers OTP
 
 
 


Are you ready to
embrace your future?

Thanks to the OTP, you will have the opportunity to enhance your Operations knowledge with both hands-on experience and an ad-hoc learning path. 

Through the mid-job rotation within the same Function, you will have the chance to expand your vision and learn from different areas, acquire new technical knowledge, and be guided by inspiring leaders. While acquiring skills in your roles, you will take part in enriching development activities.

The first six-month Academy will enable you to take part in various types of initiatives that will introduce you to the culture, context and top management while building a solid network with the OTP community along the journey.

After that, you will follow monthly modules from an International Business School for a one-year program, where you will have the chance to deep dive into Operations Management topics and unlock your potential for a long-term career path by improving your soft skills.

The halfway point of the development program will be marked by a Hackathon where trainees in both locations will have the chance to meet and compete together: the ideal moment to show your consolidated skills as a community.

Once your learning period ends, it will be time to apply your knowledge with a Project Work, an opportunity to work on an innovative project and present it to Leaders.

The OTP is a unique opportunity to kick-start your career, with chances to meet, learn from, and be inspired by business leaders at every touchpoint. Once you get to the end of the journey, an exciting and challenging role in Operations in one of EssilorLuxottica’s Global Hubs is your next prospect. 


Ad-hoc training • Possibilities to interact with our leaders • Shifts and in-store experience • International OTP community • Dynamic career with many pathways in Operations
