Rachael’s story As part of the marketing department, I am responsible for the ownership and equity of our brands. I help to create, reinvigorate and sustain brands that touch the lives of billions of consumers and shoppers. I’m responsible for Gillette Blades & Razors, meaning I work with the Singapore office and local experts to develop Gillette’s marketing plan across ANZ. A role in marketing with P&G allows you to develop and demonstrate outstanding marketing and business management skills. Your marketing career begins as an Assistant Brand Manager on a brand group. From the first day, you’ll be given immediate responsibility and be expected to build your part of the business as if it were your own. |
From my very first day I’ve enjoyed the knowledge that I’m contributing to the business and owning results. I’m responsible for a major brand, and I’m given all the coaching and support I need to make those bigger, more important decisions. A career high for me would be the launch of Gillette’s Venus Embrace razor. The launch event ‘The Venus Embrace Smooth Stiletto Sprint’ was both a great success and great fun. This level of responsibility allows me to become involved in all manner of marketing initiatives – from TV to PR to in-store plans. It keeps me on my toes! P&G believes in building from within, so it makes sense that it offers the best training and development. I feel that while I’m learning about my current role, I’m being prepared for my next one. It’s great knowing P&G is willing to invest in me, both personally and professionally.
Do you aspire to be a General Manager, maybe even a CEO? A career in marketing can help you get there! Just ask our global CEO, Robert MacDonald, who started as an Assistant Brand Manager.
Perhaps marketing for you is about a passion for building great brands? At P&G we have some of the world’s leading brands and are all about helping build you to be a world class marketer.
Marketing offers a career along 2 paths, either developing your leadership skills to become a general manager or helping you to become a marketing expert in a specialty area. This leadership development includes helping build both your business skills and experience and your ability to lead and manage others.
Within your first few years within Marketing, we will provide you with a multitude of opportunities to learn and develop within the company as a key priority for your success. Learning options include:
- Attending our world class ABM (Assistant Brand Manager) college where you will be trained alongside all other marketers in Asia on the fundamentals of marketing at P&G
- Intensive on-the-job training through your Brand Manager
- Access to capability training and discussion forums on the P&G global Marketing online site
- Weekly bite-sized capability sessions (Australia only)
- Soft skill development through our corporate training program (e.g. presentation & effective writing skills, leadership development, people management and more)
- Access to courses on our online self-paced learning system
Training colleges are held ongoing throughout your career to provide continual development and support as you take on bigger roles and responsibilities.
You’ll join as an Assistant Brand Manager (ABM) on a brand group like Gillette, Pantene or another of our global brands, and given immediate responsibility. During the first 12 to 18 months, you will work on developing a marketing plan to lead your brand’s strategic choices and vision, product and commercial innovations, and marketing elements across all media while collaborating with teams from other functions (e.g. Sales) and agency partners (e.g. media agencies).
Your career in marketing over the first few years will be about helping you develop strong leadership and core marketing skills, and exposing you to multiple brands in order to prepare you to become a Brand Manager. Marketing offers a career path to move into general management or to develop your passion for brands by becomming an expert in a particular specialty.
As a global company, opportunities for overseas assignments, such as in our Asia regional head office in Singapore, are encouraged to broaden your career.
