At L'Oréal, we firmly believe that the end of your education doesn’t mark the end of your learning. We’re passionate about ensuring all our employees are constantly developing their skills with on-the-job learning—everything from courses and networking sessions to in-house training.

You will...

As the Media Transformation & Performance Intern, you will sit at the leading edge of L'Oréal UKI’s digital evolution. Working across our central Media and Performance teams, you will play a dual role: first, supporting the end-to-end rollout of Melody, our global media platform, and second, helping to spearhead our transition from traditional SEO to GEO (Generative Engine Optimization). You won't just be managing data; you will be building the "Blueprints" for how L'Oréal wins in a digital-first, AI-driven market.

Day-to-day you may be...

Platform Rollout Support: Assisting in the UKI deployment of the Melody platform, working closely with both L'Oréal and our agency partners at Publicis.

Data Migration & Auditing: Auditing legacy media data to ensure it is migration-ready and strictly compliant with Melody’s global taxonomy and structure.

Blueprint Creation: Designing "How-to" guides and standardized internal playbooks to ensure consistent and effective platform usage across all brand teams.

Retail Media Transformation: Assisting the Performance Media team as they evolve and optimize our direct-to-retail media operations.

SEO to GEO Taskforce: Playing a key supporting role in the newly established taskforce focused on transitioning our search strategy toward Generative AI environments.

Performance Tracking: Gathering feedback from media stakeholders to identify friction points and mapping out opportunities for further digital integration.

Internal Animation: Helping to present media transformation milestones in internal digital newsletters or team showcases.

You have...

In order to be successful in this role, you will need to have:

Digital Fluency: A strong interest in the changing media landscape, particularly the shift toward AI and Generative Search (GEO).

Analytical Precision: The ability to audit large datasets and ensure strict adherence to naming conventions and taxonomy structures.

Communication Skills: The confidence to translate complex platform technicalities into clear, user-friendly "Blueprints" for non-technical teams.

Problem-Solving Mindset: A natural curiosity to identify data "friction points" and a desire to build more efficient workflows.

Proactivity: A "self-starter" attitude with the ability to manage multiple projects across different taskforces (Melody vs. Performance Media).

Stakeholder Management: The ability to collaborate effectively with internal teams and external agency partners.
