Sales Graduate Role 2027

Business, Project Management, Economics.

Job Description

Ready to fuel the success of globally renowned brands like Gillette, Pampers, Head & Shoulders and Oral-B that millions of consumers can’t live without? Ever dreamt of a commercial career where you can be a key part of improving consumers’ lives? Want to work for a company consistently recognised as one of the UK’s leading graduate employers?

Then embark on a career in Sales at our Harrogate Office where you'll manage your own multi-million-pound business right from day one. You get to be the key contact for the business with some of the UK's biggest retailers and are responsible for building and maintaining that relationship. You will build and design ideas, strategize using analytics and shopper insights, use your relationship and understanding of the market to sell, and execute your ideas.

Our Sales graduates are a key part of the P&G mission to build brands that improve consumers’ lives. We partner with other functions including marketing, supply chain, and finance to remain at the cutting edge of the industry with consumer behaviour at the heart of everything we do. We constantly find new ways to market our products to more people and develop business plans that drive category growth and delight consumers.

This role is to kick-start your career at our Northern sales HQ in Harrogate which manages 40% of the UK retailer business. The site is only 20 minutes north of Leeds, with regular trains from both Leeds and York!

Please note there is an alternative Sales Graduate Role for those who wish to start their career based in our Weybridge office. If this is your preference, please apply to that role. We will not be offering sales graduate roles if you apply to this position to any of our other sites in the UK apart from our Harrogate office. 

Internships at P&G UK
Interns from across our functions talk about the level of responsibility, the projects they got to work on and their personal highlights.

Job Qualifications

What We Look For:

  • University undergraduates who will have completed their degree by Summer 2027.
  • We are also looking for graduates who are ready to start from January 2027 or you may have some limited work experience and are looking to kick-start your career with us!
  • Evidence of passion and achievements in academic and/or non-academic activities. Tell us what you’re proud of – be it playing a musical instrument or holding down a job alongside your studies. We want to get to know you during your application!
  • Demonstrated leadership skills and a strong passion for Sales.
  • Someone who is looking to start and develop their early career in our Harrogate office. Please apply to our Weybridge role if this location is your preference.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
  • Strong verbal and written English language skills.
  • Valid driver’s license from Day 1 of your employment with us.

What You Will Gain:

  • Responsibilities from Day 1: Right from the start you will be doing a full-time job in Engineering, managing a wide range of challenging business and technical assignments. This is also an opportunity for you to develop and deliver state-of-the-art technologies, supported by multi-million-dollar investments.
  • Build from Within Career: You'll collaborate with passionate individuals and receive both formal training and day-to-day mentoring from your manager. As a 'build from within' company, our people start at entry level and progress through the organization. When we make a job offer, it’s with the expectation that you will grow into one of our future leaders, and to help you get there, you will work closely with skilled P&G veterans for mentoring and coaching at every step.
  • Competitive Compensation: The annual starting salary for this role is £45,000. We consistently benchmark our salaries against top competitors and every P&G employee’s salary is reviewed at least annually so there is ample room for growth. In addition to this, you’ll receive an annual bonus based on business results. 
  • Great Benefits: P&G take a Total Rewards approach meaning on top of your salary, which is reviewed annually, you can expect a whole range of benefits including a competitive double-matched pension scheme, private health insurance, participation in a stock ownership scheme, and your very own ‘Flex4Me’ Fund which enables you to allocate a portion of your benefits package to the areas that matter most to you.
  • Enrolment into Vision: In your first two years with us will be enrolled into our Vision group. The purpose of this group is to connect new hires across our commercial UK sites, by building their capability and organising fun events throughout the year!

Right to Work

For our entry level commercial roles such as this one, you will need to provide your own, continuous (i.e. not time limited) right to work in the UK from Day 1 of employment without requiring sponsorship from P&G.

P&G is legally required to ensure all candidates have the right to work in the UK from Day 1 of their employment. All applicants will therefore be asked to provide evidence of their right to work at the conclusion of the recruitment process as a condition of employment.
