Those looking for an exciting and dynamic career path should be ready to hit the ground running with Lidl Ireland’s tailor-made graduate programme, which offers training and development opportunities to every participant.

Graduate team members are given exposure to an array of business areas, each of which contributes to the company’s business as well as its A Better Tomorrow strategy, which sees the company undertake several objectives to ensure it delivers on its Corporate Social Responsibilities . Each new graduate will learn first-hand how to implement this in their day-to-day jobs with the retailer.

Lidl graduates receive a starting salary of €36,400, along with a competitive benefits package and excellent opportunities for career progression. “I had done my thesis on retail and the strategies that sales assistants use when dealing with customers. It dealt with high-end retail and the high expectations of customers and how sales assistants can maintain their composure and professionalism when dealing with them. I hadn’t worked in retail before that, so Lidl was a completely new experience for me. I absolutely love it. It’s so fast-paced; you keep learning and you have an ability to make a real impact.

“I also work on the Ready for Work programme with Business in the Community Ireland. That provides training programmes for individuals who have been out of employment for a long period of time. We offer people an opportunity to get back into the workplace, help them acquire new skills, and build confidence. They could be out of work for 10 or 15 years and it can be hard to get back in with such a gap in a CV.
