NEWCASTLE INNOVATION CENTRE

Job Description

Do you aspire to be part of the innovation and technological advancement of a business behind brands like Gillette, Pampers, Head & Shoulders and Oral-B? Want to work for a company consistently recognised as one of the UK’s leading graduate employers?

Then apply for an industrial placement in Information Technology (IT) at P&G, where business, innovation and technology come together to create a competitive advantage.

IT underpins every area of our competitive advantage and every stage of the journey to develop, manufacture, market and ship market-leading products. A career in IT at P&G will allow you to build meaningful technical skills at the same time as developing crucial business non-technical skills in leadership, communication, influencing and change management.

What To Expect

During your industrial placement, you will get real responsibility from Day 1 and be expected to dive straight in, take ownership of real projects and lead them to completion. You will see your projects deliver real business value, and you will see growth in your own technical mastery, confidence, communication and leadership skills. You will also receive first-hand experience of what a career in IT within a large corporate environment like P&G involves and find out if it is right for you.

Key Accountabilities

• Collaborate directly with business stakeholders to identify, understand, and define high-impact opportunities for the application of technology.
• Architect and build intelligent production solutions to identified opportunities utilising the optimal data engineering toolset; with a focus on Agentic AI.

Each intern receives a customized learning plan to ensure they get the right levels of coaching, mentoring and training as they deliver their work.

So, if you are looking for an exciting and challenging experience, have a passion for winning, strong IT skills, leadership credentials and an interest in pursuing a career at P&G – this placement is for you!

Placements are available in our offices in Newcastle (Longbenton) and Weybridge (Surrey) (an easy commute from London with regular trains from Waterloo & Clapham Junction). A limited number of placements may also be available in Manufacturing sites, typically our London Plant (West Thurrock, Essex)

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 and day-to-day mentoring from your manager. You will also have a Coach and a “Buddy” assigned to support you for the duration of the internship.
• Competitive Compensation & Benefits: This is a paid internship; the annual salary for this role is £31,500. On top of this, you’ll enjoy lots of benefits like the option to enrol in our pension, perks and 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 IT management 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.
