Business Context and Main Purpose of the Job

Sustainability is at the heart of the Unilever / BPC business, and its goal is to reduce its environmental footprint, with the People and Plant Positive commitment. The role of the Science and Technology (S&T / BPC) pillar within R&D is to deliver breakthrough “Differentiated Technologies” using “Innovations 2:0 Big Bets” to meet consumer needs & preferences around the world. Two of these Big Bets involved “Advanced Sustainable Materials & Formats” seamlessly linked with “Digital Technology”.

Teams’ focus is to deliver faster and cost-effective Innovations through Advanced Material Pillar using Digital Capability.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

It searches the market for you

Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.

Only hits

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

Main Accountabilities

Drive digital/modeling-related project/s and capabilities to deliver Appearance / Cosmetic benefit through Material Physics, QM Simulations, and Cheminformatics & modeling.
Apply theory and modeling to explain experimentally based structure-property/activity relationships with the goal of predicting end-use product performance
Build IP funnel for differentiated and exclusive consumer benefits
Deliver business impact (e.g. iTO) through active teamwork/collaboration with S&T and Design stakeholders.
Ensure Growth Mindset and thought Leadership with resource efficiency, speed & teamwork
