Why join one business when you can join a whole mix of them? We’re not just a food retailer; we’re also the UK’s largest independent travel agent, a funeral director, a pharmacist and more. We’ve won a plethora of industry awards spanning every one of our chosen markets, with recent accolades including the prestigious Multiple Retailer of the Year, UK Travel Agent of the Year and a recent win at this years Target awards for the most outstanding contribution to diversity in graduate recruitment.
But the real difference lies not just in what we do; it’s what we are. A co-operative. It’s an altogether different business model, where everything we do is for the benefit of our members. We’re driven by our social goals and our co-operative values give us a positive advantage - for instance, we already sell more Fair Trade products than any other high-street retailer.
Unlike a plc, we don’t have a board of shareholders to answer to. But that doesn’t mean we’re any less commercially ambitious. We operate in fiercely competitive markets, and we’re focussed not only being the most successful consumer co-operative business, but also on leading the retail sector as a whole.
We're responding to our members’ needs with large-scale change initiatives spanning the length and breadth of the Group; and we need more people who are equally passionate about what we can achieve. This is your chance to join a business with integrity - and play a pivotal role in shaping our future.
Right now we’re looking for ambitious, commercial graduates to join us as the business leaders of the future as well as a small number to join our CIMA accredited Finance programme.
You could come to us straight from University, or you could have some other experiences under your belt. Either way, show us that you share our passion for our social goals combined with a strong sense of commercial awareness and the chance to take on early responsibility and make a real impact is there for the taking. So ask yourself: have you got what it takes?
