From this summer (June/July), we are offering Laboratory Science internships for talented students who are currently studying towards a NVQ Level 3 (e.g. BTEC OND or A-Levels) up to Level 5 (HND) in the area of Chemistry/Biology/Physics/Laboratory Science/Life Sciences.

The internship will provide a fantastic insight into the working world of a laboratory technician at one of our R&D centres. Either in Reading, Berkshire, where we invent the next generation of products for P&G’s Male and Female Grooming Products (Gillette/Venus), or at Egham, Surrey, where you could be working on Health Care or Beauty Care Product Development, Analytical, Microbiology or Quality Assurance.

Please specify your preferred location on your application of cover letter when applying.

Successful interns may even have the opportunity to join as a permanent, full-time employee with the opportunity to grow their career as they progress.

As an intern you will be:

- embedded into one or more project teams, assisting with and leading test procedures to produce reliable and reproducible results, contributing to the overall project’s needs

- documenting and compiling data from various lab experiments for review and interpretation together with your manager/supervisor

- communicating your results and observations to your manager/supervisor and other colleagues

You will have the opportunity to put your technical knowledge and skills to work on intellectually challenging problems, whilst improving your team working and leadership skills through practical experience.

Your Learning & Development will be focused in a number of different ways – through on the job practice & experience, coaching and guidance from colleagues, and through formal classroom or online trainings where relevant for both you and the project(s) you will be working on.

So, if you are interested in gaining some insight and experience in a leading international company, whilst receiving a competitive salary, please submit your application and attach your most up to date Curriculum Vitae including details of the subjects you have taken, and are currently taking and achieved and predicted grades.

We also encourage all applicants to review the stages in our selection process by going to the ‘Apply’ section of our careers website. Here you can see what we are looking for from candidates and take practice assessments.

Dates & duration of internship: We are ideally looking for students who are available this summer for a minimum of 6 weeks, and/or are available for up to a maximum of 12 months. Please specify your availability in terms of dates and duration on your application/cover letter.
