Position Summary
Our client is Unilever — a global, purpose-driven company whose brands are loved by millions, including iconic names like Dove, Shea Moisture, Vaseline, Axe, TRESemmé, Hellmann’s, and Knorr, and innovative brands like Liquid I.V. and OLLY.
We’re looking for a driven, analytical, and customer-focused student to join Unilever Canada’s Customer Strategy & Planning team as a Customer Supply Chain Analytics Intern.
This role supports Unilever’s customer supply chain operations, helping connect customer needs, operational execution, and data-driven decision-making to improve service performance for one of Unilever Canada’s strategic retail partners.
You’ll work at the intersection of Customer Development, Customer Experience, Order Management, Warehouse, Transportation, and Supply Chain teams — turning operational data into practical insights, supporting issue resolution, and helping translate business priorities into customer-ready execution.
Throughout the internship, you’ll benefit from a comprehensive onboarding experience, a dedicated buddy, a direct line manager, learning opportunities, and access to leadership. The program culminates in end-of-term presentations where you’ll showcase your key accomplishments.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to build experience in supply chain, analytics, operations, or consumer packaged goods.
The Perfect Person for the Role
You’re a natural leader who looks for opportunities to improve how work gets done, takes ownership of your deliverables, and brings energy to solving customer and supply chain challenges.
You’re a change-maker who believes in continuous improvement and is motivated by finding better ways to serve customers, reduce complexity, and strengthen execution.
You’re a strategic thinker who can connect operational details to broader business priorities, and a storyteller who uses data to generate actionable insights and communicate recommendations to different audiences.
Most importantly, you have a competitive spirit — you’re motivated by improving performance and helping Unilever win with its strategic customers.
Your Responsibilities
Data Management and Analysis — Access, manage, and analyze customer supply chain data to support customer service performance, issue resolution, and operational reporting
Customer Execution Support — Monitor order, shipment, inventory, and compliance activities to help ensure customer requirements are understood and executed effectively
Insight Generation — Investigate service gaps, identify root causes, and translate findings into clear summaries and recommended corrective actions
Reporting and Storytelling — Prepare recurring reports, dashboards, and business updates that convert data into actionable insights for cross-functional partners
Cross-Functional Collaboration — Work closely with Customer Development, Customer Experience, Order Management, Warehouse, Transportation, and Supply Chain teams to support customer-ready execution
Customer and Operational Advocacy — Represent the voice of the customer by helping internal teams understand customer requirements, recurring execution challenges, and opportunities to improve service
Continuous Improvement — Contribute to process improvement initiatives by identifying gaps, simplifying workflows, and supporting solutions that improve accuracy, efficiency, and customer outcomes
Presenting internship project findings and key accomplishments to business leaders at the end of the program
