OUR BUSINESS

Unilever's Wellbeing Collective holds the company's functional nutrition brands and the portfolio of brands that includes Equilibra (Italy) and US acquired brands Olly, LiquidIV, SmartyPants, Welly, Onnit and Nutrafol. Each brand is completely unique and focused on giving consumers superior experiences within their respective spaces and target segments. We are committed to continue to grow this strategic business for Unilever through a series of acquisitions and international expansion of acquired brands through Unilever's scale and network in the markets.

JOB DESCRIPTION OVERVIEW

As a formulation intern with Nutrafol, you will learn how we develop and commercialize new personal care formulations to support our customer's hair wellness journey. You will create and deploy the latest technologies to deliver breakthrough cosmetic benefits, bringing innovations to life for our consumers.

With guidance from a manager and team of functional experts, the summer intern will manage one major project on their own in a formulation role. This project will address a major technical challenge and opportunity for one of Nutrafol's topical products portfolio.

The intern will learn formulation science principles (such as surfactant science, polymer science, aquatic chemistry, chemical processing, emulsions and soft matter), conduct application testing, and be expected to apply them to the specific needs of the overall Nutrafol business. The work will be primarily on-site and involve extensive hands-on work in the laboratory. Interns can expect to prepare product formulations by systematically varying ingredients, chemical factors, or processing variables. They will perform their own characterization using rheology measurements, chemical analyses, and/or application tests. Interns will plan experiments and analyze their data using statistical and graphical tools. They will generate input and incorporate feedback from a cultivated network of technical experts within Nutrafol and Unilever to enhance the delivery of their project.

KEY ACCOUNTABILITIES MAY INCLUDE:

? Conduct benchtop formulation of personal care products

? Design experimental plan for specific formulation or processing variables

? Research novel ingredients for inclusion in formulation

? Utilize evaluation equipment for rheology, chemical analysis, and sensory

? Brainstorm key claims for novel formulations

? Compile competitive landscape overview

? Support the identification of emerging trends for the key benefit areas

? Present key findings in a written report and live presentations to stakeholders at Nutrafol and Unilever

WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR?

Undergraduate with sophomore or junior status based on Major in Chemical Engineering, Chemistry, Biology, Cosmetic Science or other related major

Proficiency in Microsoft Office suite (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) and Google suite

Proven willingness and ability to learn new technical skills

Minimum GPA of 3.0 on a 4.0 scale

Ability to conduct an experimental program to generate relevant, high-quality data with subsequent data analysis and interpretation

Ability to work under pressure in a fast-paced environment in order to meet project deadlines

Ability to work with others, communicate effectively, and contribute to cross-functional teams

Willingness to relocate to the Trumbull, CT area for the duration of the internship.
