Imagine working in the same company for 9 long years in an age and time where everything comes with an expiry date. This is what Varun’s relationship with the FMCG behemoth Nestlé has been like. Varun Sethuraman joined Nestlé right out of SPJIMR. A marketing graduate, Varun took up challenging roles within Nestlé in the first year of his Management Trainee stint. From there grew manifold within the organization. Category and Channel Head of Nestlé West India, Varun currently is in a Trade Marketing role. Varun takes us through to his career trajectory within Nestlé in this video, mapping his time and learning within the company.  

  *This is a promoted feature. Varun took up an Area Sales Manager role in rural Karnataka, early in his career. This was a shift that he was not expecting. It ended up teaching him a lot of on-ground realities, and Varun understood that marketing can’t be done with an armchair approach. He came back to a Brand Manager role and worked with the iconic Maggi brand. From working with Maggi Bhuna Masala to handling varied noddle portfolios of Maggi, Varun had a staggering time within Nestlé. Varun puts emphasis on learning and growing within the group with the mentor support that it provides to every new hire within the group. This and a lot more, about Nestlé, the work culture, the learning and exposure you get, and how it can be the best choice for your career in this video of Konversations Cafe online.
