When the CEO asks to meet our apprentices, we make it happen (in 48 hours might we add!!). After hearing about our recently launched Apprentice programme, Alex Baldock was keen to get to know everyone as they embark on their new journey. So on Friday, our apprentices had the chance to meet our CEO and ask all of their brilliant questions. We hope everyone enjoyed it #earlytalent
Today we met with our wellbeing champions to check in with how they’ve been progressing since we last met and what an action packed Thursday it’s been. From starting the morning with an energizer (nice stretches guys!!) to discussing the health impacts of getting a good night’s sleep, we’ve been busy informing and inspiring colleagues of how to further drive wellbeing at Shop Direct! #emotionalwellbeingawarenessmonth #shopdirectlife
Great talk from our friends Amazon in The Cube this morning. Head of Engineering Richard George opened up the session, as Paul Maddox then shared insights into the journey Amazon have been on over the last 18 years and their approach to delivering new solutions. Lots of good stuff for us to learn from and take on board! #SDCubed #SDMeetups
