TK Maxx / HomeSense, part of TJX Europe
TJX Europe's Merchandising and Buying Graduate Programme (MBGP) is one of the fastest growing training programs in the retail industry. The MBGP develops future leaders in our Merchandising and Buying Divisions and teaches our business, Off-Price Retailing. At TJX Europe, we offer a structured career path, on-the-job learning, career development and unlimited growth in Merchandising, Buying and ultimately in Executive Management.
The MBGP teaches you how to run the retail business from behind the scenes. Merchandising and Buying work together to drive sales and profits, providing you with the unique opportunity to have ownership for your business from day one. Your career begins in Merchandising as an Allocation Analyst where you will experience tremendous career growth. As your career develops you will have opportunities to continue your career in Merchandising or decide to pursue a career in Buying. Typically, associates interested in Buying will pursue these opportunities after demonstrated success at the Assistant Merchandiser or Merchandiser level positions.
Getting to the heart of our business needn't take forever.
TJX Europe invests in you, your development and your career. In return, we look for you to use your strong analytical, entrepreneurial, and leadership skills to strategically drive our businesses. The MBGP is a unique opportunity to learn about the world of Merchandising in a corporate setting where your growth opportunities are truly endless. The program is based out of Watford, Hertfordshire, about 20 minutes outside London, and in Düsseldorf, Germany.
Our associates who pursue a career in buying travel extensively throughout Europe and around the world. As a Buyer, there are future opportunities to be based out of the UK, Germany, Italy and beyond. Our present and past CEOs were all Buyers, so whether you are interested in Merchandising, Buying, or Executive Management, the MBGP will give you what you need to be successful.
