The Unilever YES Programme

ABOUT UNILEVER

With 3.4 billion people in over 190 countries using our products every day, Unilever is a business that makes a real impact on the world. Work on brands that are loved and improve the lives of our consumers and the communities around us. We are driven by our purpose : to make sustainable living commonplace, and it is our belief that doing business the right way drives superior performance. At the heart of what we do is our people – we believe that when our people work with purpose, we will create a better business and a better world. At Unilever, your career will be a unique journey, grounded in our inclusive, collaborative, and flexible working environment. We don't believe in the 'one size fits all' approach and instead we will equip you with the tools you need to shape your own future.

The Youth Employment Service (YES) Programme is a national collaborative initiative aimed at empowering South African youth by providing them with valuable work experience. The YES Programme at Unilever is more than just work experience — it's a launchpad for future careers. As part of this initiative, you'll be immersed in a 12-month journey designed to ignite your potential, equip you with practical skills, and expose you to real-world business challenges. Whether you're supporting teams in our offices or on the factory floor, you'll gain meaningful, hands-on experience in a fast-paced environment where learning, growth, and purpose come together. This is your chance to be part of a company that's reimagining the future of work — and investing in yours

JOB PURPOSE

  • The Unilever YES Programme is meant to provide participants with a meaningful work experience, skills development opportunities, and exposure to a professional environment as stepping stone into the world of work.

WHAT WILL YOUR MAIN RESPONSIBILITIES BE

MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS

  • South African citizen, aged 18 – 34 years
  • Currently unemployed and not studying full-time
  • Completed Bachelor of Science in Chemical or Mechanical Engineering

  • A strong academic record
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills
  • Good time management
  • Ability to work in a collaborative team environment

    • Unilever Behaviors

    Assess whether the candidates' responses and examples resonate with Unilever's expected behaviours.

  • Care Deeply : We care deeply about how consumers experience our brands every day, everywhere; about our people's growth and development, and our impact on the planet. We care about our performance, to a point where it hurts when we don't win.
  • Focus on What Counts : We ruthlessly prioritise what truly matters, and so do fewer things brilliantly. We set clear goals & direction and recognise others for maximum impact.
  • Stay Three Steps Ahead : We think boldly and creatively to make breakthroughs in performance. We are always curious and confident - anticipating and staying ahead of consumer needs and external trends, to beat the competition.
  • Deliver with Excellence : We deliver excellence in what we do at pace. We take personal ownership and hold each other to account – always finding a way to do what we said we will do.

    • Please attach the following documents as part of the selection :

  • updated CV
  • copy of highest qualification (eg. Grade 12 and Degree)

    • Unilever is an organisation committed to equity, inclusion and diversity to drive our business results and create a better future, every day, for our diverse employees, global consumers, partners, and communities. We believe a diverse workforce allows us to match our growth ambitions and drive inclusion across the business. At Unilever we are interested in every individual bringing their 'Whole Self' to work and this includes you. Thus if you require any support or access requirements, we encourage you to advise us at the time of your application so that we can support you through your recruitment journey.
