The Ferrero Story: A Legacy of Family, Quality, and Innovation
Ferrero’s journey began in 1946 in the small town of Alba in Piedmont, Italy. It was there that a passionate confectioner, Pietro Ferrero, laid the groundwork for what would become a global empire. Facing a shortage of cocoa after World War II, he ingeniously created a sweet paste from hazelnuts, sugar, and a small amount of rare cocoa. This creation was the ancestor of the iconic Nutella®. From these humble beginnings, the Ferrero family, now in its third generation of leadership, has built one of the world’s largest sweet-packaged food companies. The spirit of innovation continued with Pietro’s son, Michele Ferrero, the creative genius who introduced the world to legendary brands like Kinder, Tic Tac, and the exquisite Ferrero Rocher. He transformed the company into a global powerhouse, becoming the first Italian manufacturer in the confectionery sector to open production sites and offices abroad. Today, with over 35 iconic brands sold in more than 170 countries, Ferrero remains a family company at its core, deeply committed to its employees, consumers, and the communities in which it operates. Joining our Rome facility means you become a custodian of this incredible legacy, contributing to the magic that brings joy to people worldwide.

Living and Working in Italy: Practical Information for International Applicants
For those considering relocating to Italy for this opportunity, here is some practical information to help you plan your move.
Work Permits and Visas: Non-EU citizens will typically require a work visa (Nulla Osta) to be employed in Italy. The employer often initiates this process. Italy periodically issues a "Decreto Flussi" (Flow Decree) which sets annual quotas for non-EU workers. We encourage all international applicants to apply, and our HR team can provide guidance on the visa process for successful candidates.
Cost of Living in Rome: Rome is a major European capital, and the cost of living reflects this. However, compared to cities like London, Paris, or Zurich, Rome can be more affordable. Expect to budget for rent, utilities, food, and transportation. Sharing an apartment is a common and cost-effective option for newcomers.
Healthcare: Italy has a public healthcare system (Servizio Sanitario Nazionale - SSN) that provides universal coverage to all residents, including legally employed foreign workers. Once registered, you will have access to a wide range of medical services.
Language: While Italian is the primary language, many international companies in Italy, including Ferrero, use English in their corporate communications. However, learning Italian will greatly enhance your daily life and integration into the community. Many free and affordable Italian language courses are available in Rome.
Transportation: Rome has an extensive public transportation network, including buses, trams, and a metro system. Many employees also commute by scooter or bicycle. The factory is accessible by public transport, making your daily commute convenient.
