Responsibilities

Functional Description :

PepsiCo Global Procurement is divided into two primary business units in North America - Beverages (Purchase, NY) and Foods (Plano, TX and Chicago, IL). The Procurement function is responsible for developing and executing sourcing strategies that deliver best-in-class economics, supply assurance, innovation, and sustainability practices for both people and the planet.

Procurement is a highly collaborative organization that partners across many functions within the company, including R&D (scientists and engineers to develop industry-leading ingredients and packaging), Marketing (ensure supplier capabilities grow in line with future-looking consumer insights), Finance and Legal (robust analysis and reporting metrics and competitor intel, and best-in-class agreements with external industries), and Manufacturing Plants (facilities that efficiently produce the snacks and beverages that make consumers smile across the globe) to name a few.

Global Procurement develops deep industry knowledge and delivers competitive advantage to PEP by negotiating best-in-class sourcing strategies across the following areas :

• Packaging (cans, bottles, chip bags, etc.)
• Ingredients (Seasonings & Flavors, Vegetable Oils, Potatoes, Sugar, Corn, etc.)
• Supply Assurance (planning & analysis, logistics, manufacturing, etc.)
• Commodity Risk Management (hedging programs, risk mitigation, competitive analysis, etc.)
• Indirects (IT, Marketing Equipment, Services, etc.)

What you can expect :

The internship program will be approximately 10 weeks over the summer months. An internship in Global Procurement at PepsiCo is an opportunity to independently solve a critical business problem.

This structure mirrors the project-based work process of full-time employees. Although this process lends itself to great autonomy in setting the agenda, workflow and output, interns have the full support of their managers and the broader Global Procurement function. As a class, PepsiCo interns are availed of best-in-class exposure to senior leadership, education on the myriad pieces of the global PepsiCo organization, and opportunities to build relationships with fellow interns across PepsiCo through a summer calendar packed with fun events.
