What the Manufacturing Graduate Scheme entails 
Our Manufacturing Graduate Scheme will fast-track your career development by giving you a deeper understanding of all the processes that go into manufacturing here. You’ll see how they work together and where you might fit in amongst them and really make a difference. You’ll have laid some solid foundations at university.

People don’t come off the production line—we’re looking for individuals. You’ll need a degree but, we’re not looking for particular subjects or grades (although the more relevant, the better). All we need is to see that you're the kind of person who can meet every day and more strategic challenges with clear, creative solutions.  It takes a certain attitude to work here—if you’re someone who is excited about their own future development and wants to make a positive impact in business and in the wider world, you're exactly what we’re looking for.

From thriving as a Line Manager to potentially working globally as part of the Nestlé Performance Acceleration team. At Nestlé, with the right talents, you’re getting ready for a future of potentially limitless development There’s also our ‘Force for Good’ initiative, which is all about making sure our commercial goals are aligned with social responsibilities like healthy eating and helping the environment.
