Nestlé UK and Ireland
Our commitment to youth
Facing the future in an uncertain world
New talent and skills are essential to maintaining the vitality of any organisation. But it is also critical for us, as a large company, particularly in these difficult times, to support both the employment and the employability of young people just starting out in their careers.
A leg up
We have formal programmes, such as graduate schemes, internships and apprenticeships. During the pandemic we also offered virtual work experience that we intend to continue with. We are engaging with schools, universities and colleges to raise awareness of the opportunities there are within Nestlé and to help with employability skills.
This is part of our responsibility as good corporate citizens, but it is also the best way to bring in the new skills and talent that will take us into the future.
We are at a difficult moment for employment in general and we know, at the best of times, how daunting it can be for young people taking those first career steps. Despite the challenges we are all dealing with, and consistent with Nestlé UK & Ireland’s long history of working with young people, we believe continuing to support youth employment is the right thing to do.
