"I’m relatively new to retail, so the apprenticeship felt like a great opportunity to deepen my knowledge and get a broader understanding of both buying and merchandising. One of the most interesting things I’ve learned so far is about customer insights and profiling — understanding who our customers are and whether our ranges really meet their needs. The best part? The varied discussions. You’re learning alongside people from all kinds of businesses, which brings fresh perspectives. If you’re thinking about applying, I’d say go for it. It might sound like a lot to take on, but it’s actually really easy to fit around your job and your life — and it’s so worth doing."
