Britain's leading wine warehouse retailer. Majestic specialises in selling brilliant wine by the case. We believe wine, whether you're buying it or selling it, and especially when you're drinking it, should be full of fun.
This 48 week Placement Trainee Manager scheme will provide you with hands on experience in a retail environment and must be undertaken as part of your degree.
As a Placement Trainee Manager you take on the same responsibilities as a Trainee Manager, playing an integral role in the effective day-to-day operation of a Majestic store. You will be delivering consistently high standards of customer service, whilst developing your own business, management and product knowledge. Placement Trainee Manager's must contribute to the maintenance of store presentation, continuously developing their product knowledge, carrying out deliveries, minimising shrinkage and maximising sales opportunities.
REWARDS
We believe that our Placement Scheme not only provides you with skills and experience in preparation for your final year of study, it will develop invaluable skills for the future. After the 48 week Placement you will have taken WSET (Wine and Spirits Educational Trust) Level 3 exam. Whilst working as a Placement Trainee you will be entitled to all staff benefits, including:
-29 days holiday (including Public and Bank holidays)
-Staff discount in all Majestic Wine stores in UK and Wine and Beer World in France
-Wine tasting and events (Invited Wine Producer tasting)
-Competitive salary (including store target bonus and Company profit related bonus)
Your performance will be assessed throughout the 48 weeks and upon completion, we hope that Majestic will be a place that you will consider for graduate employment. Successful candidates will be given the opportunity to re-join the Company bringing the experience from their Placement and the skills developed over the final year of study, becoming a Manager of the future.

WHO WE LOOK FOR
We are looking for students who need to work in industry as part of their university course, providing retail experience for your final year of study.

You must have a genuine enthusiasm for learning about the product and be prepared to put in the work necessary to gain a wine qualification.
