Every year, they launch hundreds of new products into this fiercely competitive market, and as a graduate of the scheme, you will have the opportunity to work across any of 36 global brands.

Take one of the fragrance launches, Diesel's “Only the Brave”.  One of the graduates played a very real part in this launch campaign, liaising directly with agencies on point-of-sale merchandise before negotiating prices with retailers, to ensure that the whole launch was a major success from day one.  And it worked … Diesel's “Only the Brave” turned out to be the UK’s biggest fragrance launch ever for L’Oréal!
