Why choose an Apprenticeship at Harrods?
Apprenticeships are a fantastic way to kickstart your career because you get to earn while you learn, with no need to choose between gaining experience and supporting yourself.
At Harrods, our apprenticeship programmes offer more than just a job; they provide a structured, enriching path to build the skills, knowledge, and confidence you’ll carry with you throughout your career.
Apprenticeships are nationally recognised, meaning the skills you develop here are valued across the industry. Some programmes even offer formal accreditation from respected professional bodies like CIPD, CIM, CIMA, and CIPS, giving you an extra edge as you grow.
With an apprenticeship at Harrods, you’re not just learning on the job; you’re investing in a future full of possibilities.
What to expect from a Harrods Apprenticeship
At Harrods, your apprenticeship is a chance to grow in a place that truly values you.
We are human, and that means you’ll be treated fairly, listened to, and supported every step of the way. Your health and happiness aren’t just buzzwords here; they’re a priority.
You’ll be challenged to strive to exceed, pushing boundaries and discovering what’s possible, with a team that celebrates your wins and supports you through every obstacle. Trust is at the heart of how we work, so you’ll find a safe, open environment where your voice matters and you’re encouraged to speak up.
Being part of Harrods means being part of one team, working together to create experiences that inspire both customers and colleagues alike.
What skills and qualities make a great Harrods Apprentice?
Harrods apprentices are more than just learners; they’re future stars of the retail world. What really makes someone shine here? It’s not about ticking every box; it’s about bringing the kind of energy and attitude that makes every day count.
We’re looking for people who bring their whole selves to work, who are excited to connect with a rich mix of customers and colleagues, and who love a bit of a challenge.
We love apprentices who take pride in what they do, from keeping the shop floor looking flawless to sharing their knowledge with confidence. You’ll need resilience for when the pace picks up, and a positive, can-do spirit that helps turn challenges into achievements.
Don’t just take our word for it, hear from our Apprentices and take your first step with Harrods
Your future starts here, and we’re excited to be a part of it. An apprenticeship at Harrods is a chance to learn from industry experts, develop skills that last a lifetime, and grow in a team that supports you every step of the way.
Want a sneak preview of what it’s really like from those already making their mark? Hear from our apprentices.
So, if you’re ready to bring your passion, curiosity, and drive to a place where your future matters, we’d love to hear from you.
Don’t miss your chance to find an apprenticeship that feels less like a starting point and more like the start of something remarkable.
