Job Description

Ready to make an impact on globally renowned brands like Gillette, Pampers, Head & Shoulders and Oral-B that millions of consumers can't live without? Want to work at a company consistently recognised as one of the UK's leading graduate employers?

Then apply for our Finance & Business Placement at Procter and Gamble! We offer placement students the opportunity to embed themselves within one of the teams in our organisation where you will gain in-depth practical experience. We also have a 12-month onboarding programme for placements that offers multiple trainings each month so you can build your personal skills, ranging from communication and emotional intelligence to digital capability and coding!

The roles available to our placements will allow you to integrate fully into your particular department and have a real business impact. The opportunities across the site are broad with some placements engaged in Finance roles, whilst others will be more Business and Product Supply facing. If successful, your specific role will be communicated closer to your start date. In the recent past we have had successes across and academic subject areas e.g. Modern Languages, Humanities, Business, Accounting, Economics etc.

What You Will Gain

• Responsibilities and Real Work from Day 1: You will be given specific projects and responsibilities working on real and live business challenges, just like a true P&Ger.
• Continuous training & coaching: You will work with passionate people and receive both formal training as well as day-to-day mentoring from your manager.
• Competitive Compensation & Benefits: The annual salary for this placement is £26,000. On top of this you'll enjoy benefits like the option to enrol in our pension, flexible working arrangements, and your very own 'Flex4Me' Fund which enables you to allocate a portion of your benefits package to the areas that matter most to you.
• Full Time Role: Successful interns have the potential to secure a full-time position with P&G after graduation. As a 'build from within' company, our people start at entry level and progress through the organization. When we make a job offer, it's with the expectation that you will grow into one of our future leaders, and you will work closely with skilled P&G veterans for mentoring and coaching at every step.

Job Qualifications

What We Look For:

• University students graduating in 2028 with a placement year as part of their degree. We also welcome applications from students graduating in 2026 or 2027.
• We are looking for University Students from a variety of degree backgrounds who want to experience working in a multinational company and who want to make a difference.

Start Date

This programme is designed as an industrial placement running between 1st July 2026 until 31st July 2027 and we expect you to be available for the full duration.

Right to Work

For our placement roles, you will need to provide your own right to work in the UK for the full duration of your placement without requiring sponsorship from P&G. Note, this will require your right to work permission to be valid between 1st July 2026 to 31st July 2027 for a minimum of 37.5 per week.

P&G is legally required to ensure all candidates have the right to work in the UK from Day 1 of their employment. All applicants will therefore be asked to provide evidence of their right to work at the conclusion of the recruitment process as a condition of employment.
