But in return, we can offer a fun, friendly and extremely sociable work environment, an unrivalled learning experience and, for industrial placements, a generous salary too.

Knowledge of FMCG Supply Chain would be a bonus but not a pre-requisite. What’s vital is someone who is naturally inquisitive, with a real passion and flair for creating compelling insights from various data sources.
