Training and development
Learning is an integral part of life at Unilever & there are many ways in which you can develop your skills, both professional & personal.
On the job
You'll learn much of what you need to know by working with knowledgeable colleagues and receiving regular coaching and feedback. Wherever you join, in whatever capacity, you'll have a wide variety of experiences developing skills relevant to your job and giving you an overview of how our company works.
Professional skills
Specific programmes ensure you build expertise in your chosen career. The courses often use e-learning that enables you learn at your own pace and take control of your development. In some areas you can study for professional qualifications and, as you progress, you'll develop your leadership capabilities.
Continual update
Each function has its own Academy – a team that continually updates its professional learning curriculum. E-learning modules are then made available on a dedicated intranet portal. Here you'll also find the very latest news, articles and thinking. Essentially, everything you need to keep in touch with the business.
Personal development
Passion, energy and creative thinking are traits that you'll already have when you join. But equally important is the ability to understand who you are as an individual and what you want to achieve from your career. We offer a whole range of personal development opportunities which can be tailored to your specific goals.
Mentoring
There are many people on hand to help with your learning and development, in particular your mentor. They will encourage and support you, answer questions, help build your self-confidence and offer invaluable advice.
