About the job

Ever wondered about the sophisticated supply chains that deliver consumer products to store shelves? Or how companies negotiate service contracts for infrastructure, employees, and marketing? At P&G, our Purchases group develops sourcing strategies and optimizes operations for all raw materials, packaging, and services needed to produce the best consumer products in the world.

P&G is the largest consumer packaged goods company in the world. We believe excellent ideas emerge from creative connections between our hardworking employees, and we encourage diverse, multi-functional teams to collaborate and generate new ideas to address challenges.

Purchasing internships are 12-week paid engagements, providing a strong foundation for future growth potential.

Meaningful work from day one

As a purchasing intern, you will own decisions on sourcing and handling product flows that are the backbone of our company. Managers focus on various industries and business needs, from advertising agencies to IT services, packaging, and construction.

  • Develop sourcing strategies that increase our innovation pipeline, drive costs down, and influence industries to reinvent themselves.
  • Negotiate the right deals with the right suppliers for the right reasons.
  • Work with suppliers to optimize inventory levels, order quantities, and logistics.
  • Shift supplier relationships and industries to be a Force for Good and Growth by incorporating sustainability into your work.

As you fulfill key projects, you will handle different spend areas, increase responsibilities in expenditure and people management, and become responsible for some of P&G's biggest suppliers, driving exciting innovation to generate business value. You will communicate and partner with different internal functions daily.

Your goal is to link the most appropriate supplier capabilities with needs to deliver the best shareholder return. This role provides a strong foundation for continued growth.

What we offer

From day one, you will feel ownership of your project and be given specific responsibilities. You'll receive continuous mentorship, formal training, and day-to-day guidance from your manager. Work in a dynamic, encouraging environment with diverse and exciting problems. We promote agility, work/life effectiveness, and long-term well-being, plus a competitive salary and benefits package.

Compensation varies based on location, role, credentials, and experience. Total rewards include salary, bonus (if applicable), and benefits. We are committed to equal opportunities and value diversity. Immigration sponsorship is not available for this role.
