Sales I UK I GROW
“When reflecting on my first year within PepsiCo on the Accelerated Career Programme, the amount I’ve learnt along with the opportunities that I’ve been presented with continue to motivate me to do more, and be in a frame of mind where I cannot wait to get into work the next day to start on the next project. From working as a Sales Development Representative with independent retailers, to managing multiple key customers within one of the accounts in our convenience channel. Due to PepsiCo’s welcoming and team-driven culture, I have a job that I have immense pride in, which challenges me day-to-day and allows everyone to collaborate towards achieving mutual goals, and succeeding as one team.”

Thanks to PepsiCo’s incredibly welcoming and development-oriented culture, I now have a job I love which constantly excites and challenges me!"

IT I UK I LEARN
“Although I have only worked at PepsiCo for 4 months, I only have good things to say! The opportunities that PepsiCo have offered me as part of my role have been tremendous. I have been involved in multiple projects and activities on top off my day-to-day role which keeps my placement super exciting. I have met some outstanding and friendly people who I know I will keep in touch after my placement year. The culture here is so collaborative and supportive that I’m never afraid to ask questions or ask to learn new things.”
Sophie Clark
Demand Planning I UK I LEARN
“After studying for two years at University, I was honoured and delighted to secure my placement at PepsiCo. I was welcomed by the friendly yet hard working and professional environment that is central to PepsiCo’s culture. Since then I have gained extremely valuable experience and skills throughout my time in the Supply Chain team, from simply improving on my IT know-how to discussing forecasts at Customer Headquarters. My work at PepsiCo has filled me with a great sense of pride and they have definitely helped me prepare for my final year at University as well as whatever my future career may hold.”
