Sales & Analytics Reporting Undergraduate Placement

What will you be doing?

You'll be working in our busy and diverse sales chain, assisting with the communication, management and performance of existing sales development programmes. You'll provide cross-team support for a range of operational work to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of our sales activity, helping to achieve our volume, growth and customer satisfaction ambitions. This role will include operational tasks and project management across our retail network.

What's in it for you?

As an undergraduate on one of our placements, you'll receive a £23,000 salary, as well as a new car every six months (as long as you have a full, clean UK driving licence). You'll also receive 27 days' holiday – plus bank holidays – a discretionary bonus, pension scheme, employee well-being support, an on-site restaurant and shopping discounts.

What do you need?

To be successful in this team you'll have strong commercial awareness and organisational skills, as well as a keen awareness of customer and employee needs. The roles here suit a detail-focussed individual with a determination to solve problems and raise standards.

Our placement is open to any university student who is eligible to work full-time in the UK for twelve months from June 2025. You should be on a sandwich degree or course which offers a one-year industrial placement. We believe all employees should have a good work/life balance and wouldn't want you to spend a large amount of time commuting, so we require our undergraduates to be based within a reasonable distance from our Milton Keynes head office. 

What's the assessment process?

Once you have hit the apply button, you will be asked to complete numerical assessment and situational judgement assessments. If you successfully complete these, we will invite you to an online video interview so that we have a chance to get to know you a little more about you.

Our final step in the journey would be for you to attend a face-to-face assessment centre, where you will take part in a range of activities based on real life tasks. You will also have a chance to meet some of our managers and also the existing student placement cohort to find out more about the scheme.

This process is designed to help us both work out if a placement here is the right step for you. Successful candidates will be offered a place soon after the assessment centre.
