During the program you'll get to undertake placements in both Sales and Marketing divisions. In Sales, you’ll build partnerships with a wide range of our customers, which can include distributors, supermarkets, convenience stores, and even e-commerce. This will help us reach our target markets, which could mean working together to maximize a new product launch, recommending the right range of products or negotiating an annual business plan.
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.
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 and in French and you also need to be a Fresh Graduate or professional with experience not more than 2 years.

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 areas.
