• Developing a sustainability toolkit for strategic suppliers
• Leading sourcing events
• Managing a cross-functional team
• Performing cost/benefit analysis
  

Are You Ready to Make a Difference?
PLDP participants benefit from global leadership exposure and a wide range of networking opportunities. In addition to being paired with a senior leader mentor who can provide you with valuable insight and counsel, you'll also have an opportunity to interact with other senior leaders at Johnson & Johnson. And to hone your leadership skills, you'll prepare for and deliver presentations, and participate in immersion events and summits.

The PLDP Internship Program
The PLDP Internship Program is a 10- to 12-week internship with Johnson & Johnson's procurement team in which you'll take on an individual project challenge to solve a critical business need. You'll participate in immersion events, attend a leadership speaker series, tour manufacturing plants and conduct community service.
