Industrial Placement - European Technical Services

Job Description

Heinz brands are loved the world over and we want to make sure it stays that way; that's why we're always thinking of new ways to delight our customers and we're after bright minds like yours.

What the placement entails
Our European Technical Services team sets the policies and standards, and develops the systems for quality and food safety across our European business. Ensuring our products meet the increasingly demanding expectations of customers is what the function is all about. And during the course of this 12-month placement, you'll get a unique insight into their work.

The invaluable on-the-job training you'll get working on a wide range of projects, together with a variety of more formal learning opportunities will boost your knowledge of everything from Quality Management to Risk Assessment and Process Improvement. Just like our graduate joiners, you'll be given your own specially tailored development plan. And just like them you'll receive regular progress reviews, as well as the advice and support of a mentor from the senior management team.

Who we're looking for
To be considered, you'll need at least 280 UCAS points and you must be on course for a 2:1 or above in a science-related subject. But every bit as important as a good set of grades will be the personal qualities you bring: an enquiring mind, an analytical approach; a willingness to back up your projects with some good, solid research. Above all, you need to be the kind of person who likes to challenge the status quo and who's not afraid to chip in with their own ideas. Someone who's prepared to push themselves and who'll respond with enthusiasm to every challenge we set.

A bit about Heinz
As a brand, Heinz needs little introduction. But what you might not be aware of is our approach to business. Because we believe in adopting an intense customer focus, we're driving innovation and developing our existing products in all sorts of original and interesting ways. It means we're set to launch major new initiatives with our products and brands. The challenges won't stop there though.

We're going to invest even more in our people. As well as honing the expertise we've already got on board, we're looking to attract a whole new pool of talent to Heinz. That way, we can keep the way we do things just as fresh as our products.
