As the world’s largest food company, we are committed to promoting NHW through the products that we make and by providing consumers with information to help them make healthier choices. At Nestlé, we use four simple words to describe what we offer: ‘Good Food, Good Life’. We believe that having a healthy, balanced approach to the things you eat and drink helps you enjoy life. Nutrition is just one aspect of ‘Good Food, Good Life’. Great taste, consistent levels of quality and safety, value for money and convenience also enhance our enjoyment of food and, ultimately, life.
Where better to observe nutrition in practice than at Nestlé? During your placement year, you will become part of the WellNes in Action Team, - a friendly, close-knit team of nutritionists, home economists and marketeers – who are instrumental in driving Nestlé UK further toward its vision of becoming the leading developing a growing reputation as a Nutrition Health and Wellness organisation in the UK and Ireland through our retail and food service brands.
It is a unique opportunity to gain invaluable experience in nutritional science, labelling and communications, and food legislation as well as product development areas. The type of work that you will be involved in could include recipe and product analysis, product benchmarking, nutritional audits of our staff cafeterias, developing communications for our employee wellness programme and checking nutritional aspects of marketing communications.
We are looking for an individual with a strong interest in nutrition. You should ideally be studying for a degree in Nutrition. However, we would consider related degrees with a strong focus on Nutrition and Health. You will be proactive, reliable, a good team player and communicator and action orientated.
