What’s more, you’ll gain a debt-free degree at the same time! For career progression, it’s the complete package.

What the Packaging Apprenticeship Entails 

Get ready for an immersive learning experience that will show you exactly what goes into packaging iconic products such as KitKat, Nescafé Dulce Gusto, Lion Bar, and Aero. You’ll get to experience the packaging process end-to-end under the guidance of our industry experts.  

As the world’s largest food and drink manufacturer, we use a huge amount of packaging, but we are striving to make our impact on the environment as low as possible. We’re using a range of innovative materials, processes and delivery methods that will position us as a global innovator, caring about the planet and its resources. In fact, by 2025 we aim to make ALL our packaging recyclable or re-usable. 

With sustainability high on the agenda, our packaging team are working hard to develop the most innovative materials and process chain. Part of the process is analysing new materials and new ways of presenting and packaging our products. So, as a Degree Apprentice in packaging, there really hasn’t been a better time to come on-board, learn new skills and play your part in the wave of innovation that is central to our development. 

It’s all about the technology we use to make our wrappers, cartons and packaging. You’ll learn all about forming, sealing, 3D printing, CAD drawing, and modelling—and how we maintain continuous improvement so we can make packaging more efficiently and further reduce environmental impact.  

Responsible for projects, problem solving, analysis and supplier management, you will get to learn and apply those skills in practical solutions as you help us pilot new initiatives. It’s a tremendously exciting four-year Apprenticeship, aiming to develop you into a packaging expert. You’ll become familiar with every stage in the process and contribute significantly to our future environmental commitments.

This is a fantastic opportunity for ambitious individuals who want to become a global packaging expert. It’s a chance for you to pursue your passion for science, eye for detail and love of working as part of a team, as you demonstrate your qualities as a true innovator.You’ve got at least 5 GCSEs including Maths and English at grades 9-4 (or A*-C if received in 2017 or earlier), but you’re only at the beginning of your journey. Now you’re looking to grow your prospects with in-depth learning and real work experience—and you’re coming to one of the best places in the world to do just that. 


What will I get out of a Nestlé Apprenticeship?  

The mentorship you’ll get from our experts is geared towards making you just as skilled as they are across a range of packaging functions.
