“Unilever Careers Powered by Fair and Lovely Career Foundation” sponsors EDEX Expo 2020 as the Principal Sponsor Job Fair”
Unilever is one of the world’s leading consumer goods companies, making and selling around 400 brands in more than 190 countries. Every day, 2.5 billion people use our products to look good, feel good and get more out of life. That’s about a third of the global population choosing from household names such as Lipton, Knorr, Dove and Hellmann’s.
Successful businesses of the future will look very different. They will take a stand, and act, on the big social and environmental issues facing the world. They will do more good for our planet, not just less harm. They will share the wealth that they create, more equally and more fairly.
It is abundantly clear that we’ll be a better business by following this path. Around the world, people are increasingly opting for ethical, sustainable brands.
Citizens are taking to the streets or social media to praise good corporate behaviour and punish bad. Investors are holding companies to account, recognising that a healthy business requires a healthy world.
To realise our purpose of making sustainable living commonplace, we need to be more than just a sustainable business, we need to be truly fit for the future – fully digitised, faster and more flexible, anticipating the many significant changes which are shaping our industry.
We have a long tradition of being a leading sustainable, future-fit business. It goes back to the days of William Lever, who launched the world’s first purposeful brand, Sunlight Soap, more than 100 years ago.
More recently, we led the way with our Unilever Sustainable Living Plan – becoming the first global company to set the ambition of decoupling growth from environmental impact.
With a history spanning 81 years in Sri Lanka, Unilever is deeply rooted in Sri Lankan society and is home to some of the country’s most purposeful, iconic brands such as Signal, Sunlight and Lifebuoy. Brands that address key country call outs such as health, hygiene, economic inclusion of women, sustainable waste management and social cohesion.
Our Project Saubhagya – empowers women entrepreneurs in rural areas to earn a sustainable livelihood, Project Arunella – works with communities on sustainable waste management, T hues – a sustainable dye initiative resulting in zero tea waste in our factory in Agarapathana are amongst the multitude of initiatives that positively impacts the communities we operate in.
With purposeful brands coming to life, the Unilever Sri Lanka Careers team together with Fair & Lovely Career Foundation joins to bridge the gap between undergraduates/graduates and their prospective career options.
At Unilever you are more than your job title, you are part of the world’s most successful, purposeled business.
