Our technical, innovative environment is one that embraces fast-paced change and cultivates a sense of leadership and commitment amongst our employees.

We offer industry leading learning and development opportunities to allow you to excel in your career and take on new challenges - expanding your knowledge and expertise across a range of different areas.

What To Expect:

• If you are offered a graduate role with our team, below are some examples of the roles and responsibilities you could have:
• Design, implement and maintain systems to collect and analyse data for critical product and process parameters.
• Identify and eliminate or reduce losses through making process or work system changes.
• Own critical Daily Management Systems – you will be entrusted from the start to own these systems and processes!
• Share and reapply learning across processes, modules and plants – you will be a key part of a wider Product Supply organisation, learning from others and sharing best practice, often across the region and sometimes the globe.
• This role is available in our London Plant in West Thurrock, Essex (commutable from London with regular trains from Fenchurch Street).

What You Will Gain:

Responsibilities from Day 1:  Right from the start you will be doing a full-time leadership job in manufacturing, working with some of our biggest brands.

Build from Within Career:  You'll collaborate with passionate individuals and receive both formal training and day-to-day mentoring from your manager. 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.

Competitive Compensation: The annual starting salary for this role is £40,000. We consistently benchmark our salaries against top competitors and every P&G employee’s salary is reviewed at least annually so there is ample room for growth. In addition to this, you’ll receive an annual bonus based on business results. 

Great Benefits:  On top of your great salary you can enjoy lots of benefits including a competitive double-matched pension scheme, private health insurance, participation in a stock ownership scheme and discounted products and perks. We also offer hybrid/flexible work arrangements to accommodate your needs. To find more information about our benefits package take a look here.

Job Qualifications

What We Look For:

• University students who will complete their degree by Summer 2025 in any Engineering discipline. We also welcome applications from graduates who have already completed a degree.
• Evidence of passion and achievements in academic and/or non-academic activities. Tell us what you’re proud of – be it playing a musical instrument or holding down a job alongside your studies. We want to get to know you during your application and encourage you to include examples that demonstrate our Peak Performance Behaviours including what actions you took and the results you achieved in your CV.
• Demonstrated leadership skills and a strong passion for Engineering.
• Strong verbal and written English language skills.

Right to Work:

For our entry level technical roles such as this one, you will need a continuous, or temporary right to work in the UK.

Full details on visa restrictions can be found on the Home Office website and immigration rules are subject to change.

P&G is legally required to ensure all candidates have the right to work in the UK from Day 1 of their employment. All applicants will therefore be asked to provide evidence of their right to work at the conclusion of the recruitment process as a condition of employment.

The majority of our roles will be starting in July 2025, with the possibility of a small number of roles becoming available earlier.
