What To Expect:

Research and Development (R&D) at P&G will help you to discover the essence behind crafting some of the world's most renowned brands. Delve into a realm where science takes centre stage. Some of the best scientists in the world go to work making our products just right for the billions of consumers who use them. We're talking cutting edge technology, "hands-on" labs and pilot plants, 41,000+ active patents and a team full of inventors.

During your summer internship, you will get a first-hand experience of what a career in R&D with P&G involves, and if it is right for you. You will be working on live business R&D projects and expected to dive straight in and take the lead. Each intern receives a customized learning plan to ensure they get the right levels of coaching, mentoring, and training as they deliver their work. If you are looking for an exciting and challenging experience, have a passion for winning, strong leadership credentials and an interest in pursuing a career at P&G – this internship is for you!

What You Will Gain:

• Responsibilities and Real Work from Day 1: You will be given specific projects and responsibilities working on real and live business challenges, just like a true P&Ger.
• Continuous training & coaching: You will work with passionate people and receive both formal training as well as day-to-day mentoring from your manager.
• Competitive Compensation & Benefits: The monthly salary for this summer internship is £2,625. On top of this you’ll enjoy lots of benefits like the option to enroll in our pension, flexible working arrangements, and your very own ‘Flex4Me’ Fund which enables you to allocate a portion of your benefits package to the areas that matter most to you.
• Full Time Role: Successful interns have the potential to secure a full-time position with P&G after graduation. As a 'build from within' company, our people start at entry level and progress through the organization. When we make a job offer, it’s with the expectation that you will grow into one of our future leaders, and to help you get there, you will work closely with skilled P&G veterans for mentoring and coaching at every step.
