Technology Programme Analyst Review

I am the business engagement lead in the media and creative technology team as part of a wider consumer experience team. I am the go to person for all things shoppability / effortless to buy solutions for both colleagues and external partners

I have learnt the importance of catering the information you deliver to your audience. I need to have a full understanding of the technical capabilities and be able to translate them to the markets who want to understand the business benefits.

I really enjoy my programme, I am glad that I chose this path post A-levels and feel that the balance of working and studying works well for me. Unilever is a great place to grow and the friendly culture puts you at ease.

The programme is well structured in terms of work vs study balance. I always receive my 20% off job hours to study, however, I feel that there could be more awareness around the studying with LMs

I received lots of support and encouragement in my work and there is a big focus on well-being.

I always am allocated my 20% off the job hours, however, I feel there could be more guidance during exam season.

I don't find my degree helps me to perform better in my role directly, content wise. On the other hand, I feel that having the qualification to complete helps me with my time management which is beneficial.

Yes, since COVID restirctions are easing, there are lots of social activities to get involved in. Sports, socials, learning events.....

Yes

Great opportunity to get stuck into work and learn at the same time. It suits my personality to have a balance of university and career. I feel like I have learnt so much in a short space of time.

Be yourself. You aren't expected to know everything but you must be willing to learn it. Also, it is important to know in yourself why you want to apply to Unilever.
