Unilever is one of the largest fast-moving consumer goods companies in the world. We make some of the world’s most loved brands: Dove, Lynx, PG Tips, Ben & Jerrys, Marmite, Magnum, Persil and Hellmann’s, to name a few, and they have a powerful role to play in realising our vision for a brighter future. Marketing develops our brands and communications, building and maintaining relationships that can influence change and last for generations.You will have the opportunity to work on some of these brands across some fantastic categories.

What will I be doing?

You’ll be constantly deepening the already expert knowledge of our brands and the people who use them. You’ll use this level of insight to help develop our products’ personalities and bring them to life. That could mean working on the launch of a new ice cream, undertaking research on the latest trends in hair care, looking at sponsorship opportunities or planning a brand’s digital campaign. Our people have the opportunity to make a big impact every day on a local level, across Europe, and around the globe.

What do we look for?

Creative flair will see you go far, but marketing is commercially focused and demands strong business skills to actually make things happen.

What will the programme involve?

The three-year, world-class development programme is packed with variety and challenge, with the opportunity of promotion to manager level after 2 years.

  • During your local (UK & Ireland) brand-building placements you will get exposure to commercial marketing and have the opportunity to work with iconic brands like Dove, Persil, Sure and Marmite, managing brand mixes across all their elements
  • You may also get the chance to work with our brand development teams on strategy, real innovation and advertising development at a global or regional level
  • You will get hands-on exposure to Customer Development (Sales), where you will build relationships, analyse relevant data, own financial forecasting, agree a tailored business plan, or negotiate promotions.

First-hand experience – it’s the fastest way to learn. The Unilever culture is varied, friendly and encourages innovative thinking. We will push and support you to achieve your potential, whilst giving you the chance to shape your career path according to your own interests, strengths and ambitions.

Location:

Placements may be in different business units across the UK & Ireland, or even abroad, so you need to be flexible about where you are based during the programme.

Closing date:

We will close for applications as soon as we receive sufficient applications for the business area and without prior warning. We therefore advise you to apply as soon as possible to avoid disappointment.

Qualifications:

We look for minimum of a 2.1 from any discipline.

Travel Required:

On any given day, two billion people use Unilever products to look good, feel good and get more out of life.

With more than 400 brands focused on health and wellbeing, no company touches so many people’s lives in so many different ways.

Our portfolio ranges from nutritionally balanced foods to indulgent ice creams, affordable soaps, luxurious shampoos and everyday household care products. We produce world-leading brands including PG tips, Knorr, Dove, Magnum, Lynx, Hellmann’s and Persil to name a few.

For us, sustainability is integral to how we do business. With 7 billion people on our planet, the earth’s resources can be strained. This means sustainable growth is the only acceptable model of growth for our business. The Unilever Sustainable Living Plan sets out to decouple our growth from our environmental impact, while at the same time increasing our positive social impact. Our Plan has three big goals that by 2020 will enable us to:

- Help more than a billion people to improve their health and well-being.
- Halve the environmental footprint of our products.
- Source 100% of our agricultural raw materials sustainably and enhance the livelihoods of people across our value chain.

We believe that as a business we have a responsibility to our consumers and to the communities in which we have a presence. Around the world we invest in local economies and develop people’s skills inside and outside of Unilever. And through our business and brands, we run a range of programmes to promote hygiene, nutrition, empowerment and environmental awareness.
