UFLP Management Trainee (Sales & Marketing)

Job description

We develop future Unilever leaders.

The programme is designed to grow you into a leader within 3 years, through hands-on learning alongside world-class experts. You'll develop your individual leadership skills by working on live projects which offer you all the experience you need to become ready for your first management role. Over three years you'll cover up different placements in various departments.

Real tasks from the first day.

During the programme you'll get to undertake placements in both Marketing and Sales. In Marketing 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 strategies on an international level and how to translate these strategies into local market contexts.

In Sales you'll build partnerships with a wide range of our customers, which can include: supermarkets, superstores, convenience stores, drug stores, discounters, online retailers, ice cream parlours and even theme parks. This will help us reach our target markets, which could mean working together to maximise a new product launch, recommending the right range of products or negotiating an annual business plan.

Who are we looking for?

You don't need a specific degree background – this is an area where your personality will set you apart. You need to be Fluent in English (B2/C1) and Czech or Slovak (B2/C1) and you also need to be a Bachelor's or Master's Degree graduate (no longer than 12 months after graduation) or a Master's degree student able to work full-time during the next 3 years.

It takes a special blend of ambition, people skills and commercial acumen; you'll need to be credible and confident in front of people and have a passion for growing businesses, coupled with the power to influence and negotiate. A deep sense of logic, ambition, organisational and analytical skills, and head for figures is what we are looking for. You will also need to be flexible about where you are based during your time on the scheme as your rotations could be based at different business units across Europe.

The limitless opportunities at Unilever create fully engaging innovative entrepreneurship. Our people have the opportunity to make a big impact every day on a local level, across Europe and the globe.

The programme starts in September, however deadline for applying is 27.5.2019!
