What a Black Friday we had! And it wasn’t just the usual electricals, fashion and home items. We sold over 3,000 disco balls and over 17,000 Yankee candles. And roasting tins were one of the most popular products amongst our colleagues – so we’re ready for our turkey on Christmas day. http://glassdoor.com/slink.htm?key=vQLJL
Shop Direct meets The Studio Liverpool! The year 13 students had a tour of our offices and a chance to grill our apprentices on what it’s like to work here and how they can make a really strong apprenticeship application. #earlytalent
Last week Black Friday was in full swing… an event of this scale and ambition requires colleagues from all over the business to come together, think outside the box and go over and above their call of duty to deliver the best shopping experiences, prices and products for Miss Very. Teams right across our sites have been collaborating to make this year’s event the best one yet. Everyone from trading to merchandising, brand to logistics, IT to fulfillment and more. This event truly demonstrates one of our fave values #together! Keep up the great work everyone.
