English translation:recruitment and training
Explanation:
That's how I would put it. I don't think there is a reference to actual age. They mag train chief executive officers as young as 60!

training of junior executives


Explanation:
According to Hamblock/Wessels Nachwuchskräfte are junior executives and Nachwuchsförderung is executive training, but I think that the combination training of junior executives would be the best solution

training (of) junior staff


Explanation:
The best solution depends upon knowing the wider context - different translations are needed for corporate business/public sector/sport/ the arts etc.

I think this refers to the remuneration of university teachers, so in the context of public sector employment:

'junior staff' or 'junior lecturers' for 'Nachwuchs', and either training or development for 'Förderung' (probably just a general supervisory responsibility).

promotion of new talent


Explanation:
Since I don't know the exact context, this solution is a more generic one, which is not biased in terms of age or experience.

Hope it helps!
