STUDENT PLACEMENTS

We have created our 12-month placements specifically for students on a four-year university course. It’s designed to give students the chance to work in our Trading and Support teams to play a part in the day-to-day running of our business. While you’re on our placement, you might get involved in anything from developing new product ranges to playing a part in shaping the future of our IT infrastructure.

The student placement has its own dedicated onboarding and training programme to help students get immersed in the business area that they’re placed in and we’ll listen to their opinion and take their thoughts onboard throughout – something that really sets us apart from other placements on offer.
