Description
Nestlè Italia, the Italian branch of Swiss food multinational company Nestlè, announced the start of a significant recruitment campaign that will drive to the hiring of around 1,500 workers by the end of 2025.
New recruits will increase the multinational company's Italian workforce and will be particularly concentrated in the IT hub of the company in Assago (near Milan), which, since 2019, has managed part of Nestlè's IT services for the whole global market.
Required professional figures are data scientists and data managers, together with marketing staff, sales and e-commerce staff, and food technicians.
The IT hub in Assago supports the digital transformation of the entire Nestlé Group.
