University for the Creative Arts
Flattering isn’t the word. You’re going to blow your students’ minds when you plant that little seed of Nestlé ambition. It’s going to give them that extra boost of confidence that they deserve. After all, they’re pretty special and you’ve seen something in them, but you know they just haven’t found their cruising speed yet. Which is why you’re here, after all.
Alright, so the scoop is this… We set up Nestlé Academy in 2011 to develop tomorrow’s talent. Because we are all about the future, right now. The thing is, we’ve been around for 150 years and we’ve developed a global reputation as a company that never stops innovating. Ever heard of KitKat, Nescafé or Purina? Right, then.
But, you have to keep sourcing innovators if you want to keep that up. And that’s what we do at the Academy. It’s not a one-size-fits-all approach. Talent is diverse, which is why we offer a range of apprenticeships to cater to everyone from school leavers to those looking at degree qualifications. And then there’s our graduate schemes, internships and 12-month placements: when it comes to fresh talent, we don’t leave anything to chance.
It all adds up to a win-win situation. We keep on getting stronger and better and thrilling our customers all over the world; the Apprentices who join us develop careers they can be truly proud of. So, yep, that’s about the size of it.
Have a look at our website and see for yourself the range of programmes we’re offering. We’d love you to push a few future superstars our way, because we really think we’ve got a lot to offer them. Thanks for your time.

- Have been eligible for Free School Meals

Operational Support Staff
Nationwide
Starting salary between £18,726 and £19,626 (includes additional allowance and unsocial hours) + excellent benefits
Keeping a prison running smoothly and safely takes many things. Good judgement, common sense and responsibility to name a few. Above all, though, it takes teamwork. And as part of our Operational Support team you'll be right at the
heart of it.
We're currently looking for individuals to join us in prisons across the UK. Working in a busy, professional environment, and operating on a shift-pattern that will include some night work, you'll support the day-to-day running of the establishment. Unlike our prison officers, you'll have relatively limited contact with prisoners themselves. Instead your role we see you involved in everything from patrol and gate duties to managing deliveries, supervising visitors, monitoring phone calls and CCTV.
In return you'll receive a good salary, Civil Service pension, season ticket loan
and many other benefits. So, if you're looking for an opportunity to be part of
a friendly team that has a big influence on the day to day operation of a prison, click 'Apply' now.
