Nestle: a global business

Nestlé is the world's leading nutrition, health and wellness company. Our products include food and beverages, cereals, confectionery, pet foods and waters. As of today, we employ over 276,000 people across more than 500 state-of-the-art facilities around the world.

We're the people who make your Shredded Wheat and Nescafé coffee – and who liven up your tea break with a Kit Kat. But did you know that we also bring you Buxton Mineral Water, Felix, Rowntree's Fruit Pastilles and After-Eights? Or that our research is pushing back the boundaries of health and nutrition around the world?

There's always something new to learn about Nestlé. It might be the story of our founder, Henri Nestlé, whose research into child nutrition laid the foundation for more than 140 years of commitment to good food and healthy living. Or it might be the story of how, despite being world leaders, we always have a local emphasis as well as global reach.

Why are we different?

The Kit-Kat ChallengeIt was never our ambition to be the biggest at what we do - it was our ambition to be the best. We appreciate that size and success are nothing without the finer details - such as genuine care for our consumers, a commitment to our people and a wider sense of responsibility towards our customers, suppliers and our communities. When people work for us, they see the difference that makes at every stage.

For a start, our business has a truly global, yet distinctly European outlook, one which has been handed down from generation to generation since our founding in Switzerland in the nineteenth century. Then there's the fact that we're truly committed to sustaining local communities, thanks to our principle of 'thinking globally, acting locally'. There's our commitment to internal mobility too. This means our people always enjoy the opportunity to move around, whether within business areas, or on a secondment, or from one country to another.

Our belief in collaboration and mutual respect has created a culture of brilliant people pulling together across diverse business areas to create the products and standards for which we're so famous. It's the perfect environment in which to carve out a niche according to your own skills and ambitions, and to keep on growing, both as a person and as an employee.

What's in it for you?

Nestlé offer a range of opportunities for both undergraduates and graduates. You can join us as a summer intern which will enable you to gain priceless commercial experience or as a placement student where you will be given real responsibility and the chance to make a lasting impact on the Company. We also run a successful graduate scheme where we truly challenge you to show us what you’re made of.

Quote From A Previous Review…

“The work I did was always acknowledged and I wasn't treated like a temp student! Everyone knows that the ultimate aim is to recruit bright young people into the business, so I got a lot of support and encouragement”
