Kellogg's has made a major change in a bid to "become a more inclusive employer". The cereal and snacks giant is to no longer require prospective employees to have a degree to apply for a job.
The group said the move recognises that having a degree "doesn’t always have a correlation to the contribution someone can make within a role". The new policy is being rolled out across the wider business after a trial within its field sales team last autumn.
Kellogg's said it "hopes to access a much broader and more diverse group" of potential employees. The company has its UK head office at MediaCity and a factory in Trafford Park.
