Career Prospects at Unilever Australia and New Zealand

As a grad I'm unsure how this works, but so far I am happy with the opportunities available

Moving roles is how you move ranks, however the emphasis and energy staff put into career development, especially those coming off the grad program is exceptional. I have ever been so invited to drive my career, tell the company where I want to get to, and have their full support to get me there.

Clear line of progression and the ability to move horizontally as well. However, conscious that at the top it is quite lean and therefore less opportunities and more difficult to get there.

I feel like there are opportunities to move up however I feel like it can plateau very quickly as there is a finite number of roles so can be a point where you cant go any further cause lots of people who have been with company for a while and dont change much.

All good so far

Most new roles are posted on our internal job portal. We each have a career plan that is reviewed regularly and discussed with managers.

As a grad this is highly valued!

It seems very reasonable in particular once you finish the program there is typically a role for you to move into.

Within my current role as a graduate, I have already been given numerous promotions and increased responsibility. There are always new opportunities to progress, outside the program. Meeting KPIs and excelling in role, makes it easier to get future promotions.

Going above and beyond helps to speed up the promotion process. This doesn't mean working more hours, but means going beyond your job description and finding new opportunities to improve the business and its processes.
