Job Description
Are You Ready to Make It Happen at Mondelēz International?
Join our Mission to Lead the Future of Snacking. Make It Matter.
At Mondelēz International, we empower people to snack right. Think about it. All around the world, there's a universal cultural tension: the lines between meals and snacks are blurring. From on-the-go "second breakfast" needs to a mindful moment of indulgence in the evening, our brands and products have opportunities to satisfy consumers throughout the day. There's an increasing snacking need - but consumers don't want to have to choose between snacking and eating right. Consumers decide what and how they want to eat. We simply obsess over their interests and innovate to make sure they continue to reach for the goodness of our snacks when they want a delicious, wholesome, nutritious, or indulgent bite made from ingredients and with packaging they can feel good about. Our purpose drives each decision we make. It is the lens through which we see the world. It inspires us to give our best each day. And it gives our work deeper meaning.
