Our two-year Business Graduate programme will ensure you gain a breadth of valuable business experience early in your career. You’ll have the opportunity to work in different parts of our business during your programme, giving you the broadest experience possible in areas that need your unique skill set the most. From marketing and food buying, to CSR and supporting operational excellence in our distribution, store and online channels – we’ll make sure you maximise your opportunity to learn and develop your skills.
You might start your programme by making improvements to our supply chain - developing, trialling and rolling out a solution, so that customers can continue to get the right products, at the right time. Then you could spend your second year in the Property team, recommending where to open stores, or maybe the Customer team, creating and delivering in-store communications that will be seen in thousands of stores. Based in our Welwyn Garden City office, you’ll either be supporting a key project or within a role, with the potential to positively affect the lives of millions of customers, as well as colleagues and communities!
Who we are looking for
We’re looking for self-motivated and entrepreneurially-spirited graduates, who can work collaboratively in our business.
What you need – 2:2 degree
Working at our Welwyn Garden City campus
Our leafy, green campus is just 10 minutes’ walk from the centre of Welwyn Garden City with its many shops, restaurants, pubs and sports facilities. Close to the A1, and with frequent trains running to Finsbury Park in just 20 minutes (free shuttle buses take you between the station and office), the campus is well connected to the surrounding area.
On campus, you’ll find subsidised restaurants and coffee shops, as well as a Tesco Express to pick up your lunch or last-minute essentials. You can join the on-site Nuffield Health gym, which has state-of-the-art fitness equipment, two studios for group classes, plus treatment rooms
Your experience with us
Induction
We’ll kick off with a two-day induction, where you’ll learn more about our business and your programme. It’s a great opportunity for you to meet your fellow graduates. We’ll then introduce you to your team, so you can get to know more about your role or project and the area you’ll be working in.
Store experience
Within the first six months, you’ll spend two weeks working in one of our stores. You’ll learn how our stores operate and how they link to your role or project, which is crucial for serving our customers a little better every day.
Programme structure
You’ll gain a breadth of business experience and skills as you complete two 12-month placements in different parts of our business, working in roles or as part of a project team.
Where next?
This breadth of experience will help you think about your future at Tesco, beyond your programme, as there is a wide variety of job opportunities. As you finish your programme, you should be well-equipped to excel in a role that plays to your unique strengths and interests.
Application deadline
We recruit on a rolling basis, which means roles will be filled on a first come first served approach, so we encourage you to apply as soon as possible.
