We work in a dynamic and fast-paced industry and to be successful, we need to stay ahead of our competitors. Developing the right knowledge, skills and behaviours in our people is vital to our success.

Induction

You development begins the moment you join us. Group and brand inductions help you to find your feet quickly and understand more about the business.

Competency Based Learning

Within most functions - such as Retail, Buying, Merchandising, Distribution, Technical Services and Design - on the job training is competency based. Competencies clarify what's expected of you at each level so that you can perform to the best of your ability. These performance standards provide a framework to create your own development plan and actively manage your career. Every day you'll work alongside experienced team members and combined with regular reviews and annual appraisals with your line manager, you'll learn and develop on the job.

Open Courses

Our Management Development team offer a range of courses that cover business, technical, personal and relationship skills. These are delivered both in house and in partnership with experts in the field such as the London College of Fashion. These courses run over one or two days and are aimed at allowing individuals to address development needs identified from competency booklets and personal reviews.

In addition to the above, we offer a wide range of learning opportunities including:

• 360 degree feedback
• Development Centres
• Coaching
• Mentoring
• Systems/software training
