Human Resources

We’ve made manufacturing an exact science, but we’re continually looking to be better at what we do. 

So we use Integrated Lean 6 Sigma (IL6S), a new Mondelēz International organization capability based on three proven methodologies: Lean 6 Sigma, Total Productive Maintenance and High Performance Work Systems. IL6S aims to eliminate all losses at our plants by engaging each of our employees in making improvements and achieve a record of zero safety incidents.

We rely on skilled people who relish taking ownership of their work and developing their skills. People who can ensure the safety of themselves and colleagues while manufacturing top-quality products.

This is why we equip everyone in Manufacturing with a broad range of capabilities.

“Your career is in your hands, but stay curious and be open to learn from others.”

Linda Junel, Section Manager & IL6S Coordinator

Your learning experience

Your learning experience

Learning and development are embedded in careers within Manufacturing, although the emphasis is on you managing your own progression. Across Supply Chain Operations and Management, we invest over 15 million USD every year in training. There are over 1,200 courses available and Manufacturing has its own competency framework, so you’ll know exactly what is expected of you. You’ll also be encouraged to grow your skills by gaining exposure to teams beyond Manufacturing.

The bulk of your learning will be on the job. Projects in Manufacturing are stretching and stimulating, and you can move across teams. There are also opportunities to share your knowledge in a class, lead a task force or take part in volunteering activities, all of which will boost your development and enable you to grow faster.

There are face-to-face workshops, courses covering topics like project management, eLearning, webinars and other events such as our Growing Here Weeks. You’ll also learn from people around you, perhaps through shadowing a more experienced colleague, networking, mentoring or coaching.
