Overview
We are a team of over 530,000 people in 12 markets dedicated to bringing the best value, choice and service to our millions of customers each week. Jack Cohen started it all on a market stall in Hackney in 1919... We want to help our interns to grow their skills, reach their potential and feel inspired. We believe the most rewarding way for our interns to learn is through the responsibilities of real-life business experience which we will give them from day one as well as supported learning with masterclasses. During their paid 10 week programme they can apply their knowledge, by being innovative, working collaboratively across the business, and being responsiveness to the business' needs. We want our interns to feel welcome so there's always a buddy or manager on hand to support them
