Life in Research and Development Quality (RDQ):
As an intern in R&D at Mondelēz International, you’ll take ownership of projects. You will contribute to the future of snacking by keeping the consumer at the heart of our innovation. Spending time in our food processing innovation space and labs making and testing prototypes, applying your own hypotheses as well as past knowledge within the business, deliverables may include producing technical reports and presentations, sharing insights with stakeholders and fostering transparency and collaboration. You will have the opportunity to work with the broader RDQ community, business functions, and external suppliers, building your network and confidence. Beyond your primary project, you may support ongoing activities, gaining diverse experiences and contributing to a sustainable future. For some roles, occasional international travel may be required.
Global Research is a function that sits at the heart of R&D, combining deep scientific expertise with real-world application to shape the future of food. We are a globally connected function that bridges fundamental research with product development — translating ingredient science into consumer-relevant solutions at scale. We act as a strategic research partner to product development teams worldwide, providing the foundational knowledge and tools that accelerate innovation pipelines, and partnering on complex problems to be solved.
As a member of the Global Research department, you’ll be at the heart of supporting the next big breakthroughs, investigating fundamental science and technologies that can impact all our beloved brands from chocolate and biscuits to spreads and gummies. You’ll own and deliver a project, or series of projects, supporting the research team that you’ll be a part of. If you’re passionate about science, have a knack for problem-solving, and crave hands-on experience, this 12-month internship in Reading, is your golden ticket.
