MAIN JOB PURPOSE:
Data is the backbone of our organisation, and they're the team who are driving our transformation into a future-ready data intelligent business. So, it's an especially exciting time to join this Internship programme. Fast moving consumer goods sectors (FMCG) are fast-converging sectors. And here in the data analytics segment of the organisation, we’re leading the charge - by evolving our workplaces and people to meet rapidly changing business and customer needs. There is the large incoherence in the demand for data science and engineering skills verses the supply of skills of it across the continent. As a FMCG company our competitors are no longer just other FMCG organisations, these now include Start -up’s who offer more attractive, flexible “gig” type work. The attraction and retention of data science and engineering skills is also a prevalent challenge we face. For these reasons building constant skills pipeline becomes “a must do.”
We're set to become a 100-year-old 'start-up', as we combine our innovative agility with the benefits of our respected African heritage, clear purpose, and established brand. It's an exhilarating time to work here – and we're leading the pack by implementing real and relevant changes to meet our people, business, and customer needs. We have a very dynamic culture one with a steep initial learning curve, tailored for individuals who want to augment their data science and engineering skills with core business skills as well. We are passionate about Africa as our home and our ability and responsibility to drive her growth.
This 24-month Internship programme offers a transformative journey – as we work to future-proof our team’s skills and capabilities, while meeting world-class delivery standards across digitisation; technology and operations in our drive to win. We’re looking for talented individuals who have a deep customer obsession with data and solving problems and are inspired by solving real customer problems by analysing data, identifying trends and building bespoke solutions for our customers. This programme construct is bespoke and has a strong learning on the job, self-learning and technical training focus. If you have what it takes, then…you’re Good to Go.
