Serving millions of customers a week in our stores, our internship roles aren’t just about having a passion for our products and supporting a team to deliver complex tasks! It’s about understanding what matters for our customers and communities to put them at the heart of everything we do.
During your paid 10-week programme, you’ll be spending time in our small and large stores getting to know our different departments, learning our routines and processes, and getting hands on experience to understand how we run our stores. Plus, you’ll have a buddy on hand to support you all the way.
You’ll be supported through your programme with a variety of learning that will build your skills and develop your knowledge. It will be a mix of leadership training, networking and time with our Diversity and Inclusion (D&I) networks and leadership team.
A successful internship with us can guarantee your place on our Retail Graduate Programme when you graduate - before you’ve even started your final year of study.
Who we are looking for
We’re looking for people who love a challenge, can think on their feet and have a passion for retail. The real success in this role will come from working as part of a team as well getting to know and serving our customers and colleagues.
Working at our Welwyn Garden City campus
Our leafy, green campus is 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. We also have our Heart Building, a place where colleagues can connect and come together, to unlock innovation and collaboration and a place where they can network and socialise. Plus we have an on-site Nuffield Health gym, which has state-of-the-art equipment, studios for classes, plus treatment rooms (membership costs £23.50 per month).
Your experience with us
Programme structure

You’ll then gain real-life experience on how we run our stores as well as network, learn and develop your skills with other interns and colleagues throughout your programme.
Where next?
Throughout your internship, you’ll be encouraged to develop skills and gain experience that will support you in your future career. You’ll also receive valuable feedback on how you’ve performed during your 10 weeks to help understand your strengths and areas to develop further
Welcome
We’ll kick off with you spending some time learning more about our business and your programme. It’s a great opportunity for you to meet other interns and make some new connections. We’ll then introduce you to your team, so you can get to know more about your role and the area you’ll be working in.
