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.

Then apply for a summer internship in Engineering (Manufacturing) at our Manchester Plant where our best ideas and innovations are transformed into reality in our world-class manufacturing operating facilities. Our technical, innovative environment is one that embraces fast-paced change and cultivates a sense of leadership and commitment amongst our employees.

Our aim is to ignite your potential and equip you to enhance the capability, safety and productivity of all our systems while reducing cost and boosting sustainability. We offer industry leading learning and development opportunities to allow you to excel in your career and take on new challenges - expanding your knowledge and expertise across a range of different areas.

About our Manchester Plant:

From raw materials to finished products, our production facility in Manchester is where innovation meets execution. Engineers and plant technicians work together to maintain efficiency, uphold safety, and ensure every product meets P&G’s exacting quality standards - all whilst contributing to the bigger picture of delivering one of the most iconic P&G products, Pampers, since 1991!

The site is well connected by bus (x50 route) and tram, with the respective stops just a short walk away! On site there is free parking, a subsidised restaurant, free on-site gym, and a newly installed relaxation garden besides other local events!

What To Expect: 

During your summer internship, you will get a first-hand experience of what a career in Engineering with P&G involves, and if it is right for you. You will be working on live business Engineering projects and expected to dive straight in and take the lead.

Each intern receives a customised learning plan to ensure they get the right levels of coaching, mentoring, and training as they deliver their work. If you are looking for an exciting and challenging experience, have a passion for winning, strong leadership credentials and an interest in pursuing a career at P&G – this internship is for you!

Job Qualifications

What We Look For:

  • University students graduating in 2027 or 2028. We also welcome applications from those who have already recently graduated.
  • 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!
  • Strong foundational understanding of engineering principles within your chosen field, as well as problem-solving and leadership skills.
  • Strong verbal and written English language skills.

What You Will Gain

  • Responsibilities and Real Work from Day 1: You will be given specific projects and responsibilities working on real and live business challenges, just like a true P&Ger.
  • Continuous training & coaching: You will work with passionate people and receive both formal training as well as day-to-day mentoring from your manager.
  • Competitive Compensation & Benefits: The monthly salary for this summer internship is £2,625. On top of this you’ll enjoy the option of a 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.
  • Full Time Role: Successful interns have the potential to secure a full-time position with P&G after graduation. 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.

Start Date

The summer internship is available from 5th July 2027 until 24th September 2027. We expect you to be available for the full duration.

Application Process: 

  • Complete your Application
  • Complete our Online Assessments
  • Virtual Interviews

As part of our application process, your virtual interviews will be conducted by managers working in the business you have applied for who are committed to finding the next generation of talent here at P&G!

We encourage you to apply and complete our online assessments as soon as possible, as we may close early if positions are filled. 

Right to work:

For our internship roles, you will need to provide your own right to work in the UK for the full duration of your internship without requiring sponsorship from P&G. Note, this will require your right to work permission to be valid between 5th July 2027 until 24th September 2027 for a minimum of 37.5 hours per week.

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
