Supported by our confectionery specialists, you’ll gain a deep understanding of confectionery production at Nestlé by helping to develop new products, recipes and supporting factory trials. The four years you spend with us could be at our York Factory—home of KitKat, Aero, Yorkie and Polo—or our Halifax Factory where we make Quality Street and After Eights.
There’s also a taste of student life at Nottingham Trent University, where you’ll attend week-long learning blocks. Right the way through, your mentors will help you make the most of your time with us and prepare you for your future here.

Career Progression
Let’s hear from someone who has completed the Nestlé Confectionery Degree Apprenticeship.
“Nestlé has provided me with an exciting career which I had no idea even existed and I absolutely love it! Through the apprenticeship, I not only got a degree, but I also gained invaluable on-the-job experience which has enhanced my knowledge and given me so many incredible opportunities. From the very beginning I was involved in significant projects and within a short space of time was managing them by myself. I have gained so much confidence knowing my voice is being heard and my input recognised, and I’m very grateful I decided to take this pathway to kickstart my career.”
