Why join Unilever?
Hear from some of our people.

Unilever is one of the world’s leading suppliers of Beauty & Wellbeing, Personal Care, and Home Care products, with sales in over 190 countries and products used by 3.7 billion people every day. For more than a century, Unilever has been a pioneer, creating great brands and products which improve everyday life for people all over the world.

The UK is one of Unilever’s biggest markets, with an annual turnover of around £1.7 billion. We have around 5,000 UK-based employees, who work at sites across the regions, responsible for some of the nation’s most loved brands, including Dove, Vaseline, Persil, Domestos, TRESemmé, Sure, and Liquid I.V. found in over 95% of UK homes. 

The UK is one of Unilever’s global centres of innovation, with around 1,300 R&D professionals shaping the future of global consumer categories at our three R&D sites in Port Sunlight, Leeds, and Colworth. With world-leading science, we rapidly turn insight into innovations that make markets, not just take market share.
