Our graduate programs

We have graduate programs in Pakistan, South Africa, the Middle East (UAE) and Nigeria. Different programs have different timelines but most begin around June and July, so begin considering your application at the beginning of the year. Most of the graduates we take on are for programs in Sales and Marketing, but there are also Supply Chain programs in Pakistan and UAE. We focus on developing future leaders with detailed orientation programs, specific training initiatives and diverse assignments to ensure high on-job learning. This translates into extreme challenges, high exposure and fast career development. All programs last for 12 months.

There’s a wide range of product portfolios across the different countries, but our Powerbrands Dettol and Mortein are the leaders in most markets in which they have a presence. Other major brands in the region are Veet, Strepsils, Harpic and Disprin. We offer careers across all departments, but particularly in Brand Management, Key Accounts, Trade Marketing and Supply Chain Management.
