Our 9-week Marketing Summer Placement places you right at the heart of life as a Marketer in a FTSE 100 organisation. You could be involved in anything from brand, content marketing and media, public affairs, eCommerce, proposition development, performance marketing, and so much more!
No marketing experience? No problem. We’ve got plenty to go around and can’t wait to share it with you. You will be provided with an unparalleled level of support with access to buddies, mentors, and experienced line managers, as well as having a ready-made network of graduates across the business to tap into.
Centrica operates a Flexible First approach which means giving colleagues the flexibility they need to carry out their role in a way that works best for them, their team, and our customers. While we work in a hybrid manner – from the office and at home – we believe that having face time at work is incredibly important for growth and development. Your main office location for the Commercial Marketing Summer Placement would be Windsor.
