Customer Development<\/strong><\/p>\n

Our products have to be on the shelves for them to sell. Focusing on the customers who stock our products, from little corner shops to major supermarkets, the Customer Development team works to make our brands available to anyone who wants them. Any work in this area demands a lot of motivation and an ability to tackle tough situations. After all, you\u2019ll be on the front lines, working as an ambassador for our products, making sure people forget the competition and think of Unilever first.<\/p>\n

You will experience this in at least three rotations.\u00a0 In Trade Category Management, you will work with customers and\/or within trade channels to develop appropriate assortments, shelf- layouts, promotional strategies & price positions, based on shopper, customer & channel insights.<\/p>\n

In Customer Marketing: you will be expected to develop & execute fully integrated, insight based brand\/category solutions & activities for customers \/ channels based on shopper, customer & channel insights.<\/p>\n

Another exciting area in our Customer Development function is the Account Management & Field Execution (CD Operation). You will be expected to develop a customer strategy and business plan jointly with our customers, gain commitment from both the customer and the organisation, resource it appropriately, and follow up on execution. You will also ensure a smooth and cost-effective operation between the company, customers, and specific third parties.<\/p>\n

Finance<\/strong><\/p>\n

Finance at Unilever is about a lot more than numbers. It\u2019s a craft that requires you to get to the heart of multi-million Naira brands. It\u2019s a discipline that influences the development of our products and the growth of our business, helping our teams make a real success of their work. People will seek your advice on brand development, pricing strategy and more \u2013 and they\u2019ll trust you to see past the figures to the bigger picture. You\u2019ll be involved in evaluating the benefits of innovation on major brands like Close-Up and Omo, and be in the thick of pricing strategy and investment decisions. Over two rotations, you\u2019ll get up to speed with our operations, processes and risks. You\u2019ll get a chance to work in cross-functional teams with other business functions, including Marketing, Supply Chain and Customer Development. By getting involved with financial accounting, management reporting and analysis, you\u2019ll experience real work straight away.<\/p>\n

Brand Building<\/strong><\/p>\n

Unilever is the destination for outstanding marketers and we attract the very best. In an organization that values creativity, plays to individual’s strengths and allows people to be themselves, our aim is to maintain highly-skilled teams with a wealth of experience.<\/p>\n

Marketing at Unilever offers many opportunities to engage closely with consumers, understanding their preferences and needs as well as operate at a global, regional and local level across a broad range of products. Function is divided into two broad areas.<\/p>\n

Research & Development<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is about creating exciting and compelling visions for our brands and developing plans across the full marketing mix. It includes brand communications, innovation and renovation as well as channel-specific propositions.<\/p>\n

Brand Building<\/strong><\/p>\n

Here we translate those visions into a local market context, plan practical activity and make sure those plans are executed flawlessly. Through operations, this team\u2019s job is to deliver optimal market share and revenue.<\/p>\n

Your Development<\/strong><\/p>\n

Excel, impress, and prove yourself \u2013 and there will be nothing you can\u2019t do here. To start you off, there\u2019s a comprehensive business introduction, which will give you the ins and outs of Unilever and an overview of business in general. For each particular career area, there\u2019s a special Professional Skills programme which combines local, on-the-job training with national events: this will help you gain all the particular skills you need for your placement. We also provide some of the most in-depth personal development around: this gives you an amazing opportunity to work with experienced trainers and develop an acute awareness of your strengths and weaknesses. Regular feedback goes without saying, and you\u2019ll have an individually-tailored personal development programme to chart your progress.<\/p>\n

Support<\/strong><\/p>\n

As well as being assigned a fellow trainee in the year ahead of you as a \u2018buddy\u2019, you\u2019ll have a \u2018mentor\u2019 to turn to \u2013 usually an experienced manager. Then, of course, there\u2019s our HR team, who are always on hand to solve any issues you might have, who\u2019ll help you improve your performance. However, our culture is such that virtually anyone you approach will be more than willing to offer advice, give you guidance or act as a sounding board for those wackier ideas.<\/p>\n

What are we looking for in you? (Requirements)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Potential. Academic achievement is important, of course: you\u2019ll need a good degree in any discipline; but you\u2019ll also need other qualities: creative thinking, leadership, a love of working in teams, and above all passion \u2013 to push yourself, question our methods and take things on that you aren\u2019t necessarily comfortable with.<\/p>\n
