You’ll be pushed outside your comfort zone and supported in your development. And to mix things up, you may get the chance to do customer visits. This programme suits people will great communication skills.

Merchandising apprenticeships

Merchandising and customer service apprenticeships are great if you have good people skills and like to be hands-on. You’ll receive specialised training in multiple business and skill areas and get to visit customers to discuss product visibility and availability.
