Careers for Students

"Starting as a Summer Trainee at TCPL, I’ve had the opportunity to grow into my current role as an Area Sales Manager. One of the most meaningful experiences along the way was being part of the flood relief program in Bhagalpur, Bihar. Working alongside local teams and volunteers to distribute Tata Salt and essential food items, I witnessed firsthand the impact of our efforts. It wasn’t just about delivering supplies—it was about bringing hope, care, and nourishment to communities in need. Moments like these truly embody our #ForBetter commitment and reaffirm why I’m proud to be part of an organization that stands by society in times of crisis."

Suhani​ , Area Sales Manager – East India Sales - Alternate Channels​

"My journey with TCPL began as a Summer Intern, and since then, it has been nothing short of transformative. Coming onboard as a Management Trainee, I had the opportunity to explore diverse stints across Operations, Sales, and Marketing—each one adding a new layer to my learning and shaping my perspective. One of the most memorable chapters was working on the Tata Salt South relaunch campaign. It was a true end-to-end experience—from analyzing consumer data and conducting market research to co-creating scripts that would eventually go live. Watching the campaign unfold on set was surreal. What stood out the most was the trust and autonomy I was given, which empowered me to take complete ownership at every stage. It's this culture of ownership and belief in young talent that makes this journey so special.​​"

"My journey at TCPL began as a Management Trainee, and right from the start, I was given invaluable exposure to various critical functions like marketing, sales, and operations. This diverse experience provided a strong foundation and a holistic understanding of the business. Later, I had the incredible opportunity to drive an initiative that brought real relief to young students during the sweltering summer months. We distributed Tata Gluco Plus, free of cost, to 80 schools across Hyderabad, ensuring children stayed refreshed and energized. Being part of this initiative truly reinforced the impact of consumer-centric strategies and the meaningful difference we create at TCPL – one refreshing sip at a time. It's a testament to the growth and impact you can have at TCPL, starting from the very first step.​"
