About L'Oréal

Join L'Oréal as a Management Trainee, and you'll be given real responsibility, real challenges and real opportunities from day one. With 130 products sold per second worldwide, L'Oréal offers the most ambitious and entrepreneurial graduates the chance to work with, and become, the most inspirational minds in the business.

The company's stimulating, motivating and diverse culture is a key factor in making L'Oral the No. 1 FMCG employer of choice (Universum Student Survey, 2007, 2008 & 2009). L'Oréal is a committed Investor in People and is ranked among the top 100 sustainable companies in the world. With brands that reach in excess of 1 billion people in over 130 countries a year,L'Oréal's global scope is perfectly suited to graduates pursuing dynamic, international business careers.

Each year L'Oréal offers up to 30 high-calibre graduates a 12 month, individually tailored development programme. They are given the opportunity to experience three key areas of L'Oréal's business, to help prepare them for future leadership roles. You could find yourself deep in negotiations with senior buyers at Britain's largest retailers or masterminding an industry-leading launch strategy for one of our world renowned brands. Or perhaps you are better suited to tackling the logistical challenges presented by a company that produces 4.5 billion products per year, or to managing part of L'Oréal's £17.5 billion annual sales revenue.

L'Oréal offers roles in commercial, marketing, finance and supply chain. If you want 360 exposure to one of the world's most successful FMCG businesses, take the first step at www.lorealbusinessclass.co.uk.
