Responsibilities
Yes, I was given a huge amount of responsibility when working here, i was able to be the key project lead in different areas, as well as being trusted to take on different roles by myself.
Support & Guidance

Everyone at Unilever is so friendly and supportive here, within the 2 teams i worked in, it was very inclusive and you were able to voice your opinion.
