2 days ago


Aarhus, Denmark Hs Mittweida Full time

Do you want to kick-start your career in a global fashion company and take part in shaping the future of retail? Then the International Business Trainee Programme in Retail Management might be the perfect match for you.

WHY THE IBT PROGRAMME?

BESTSELLER’s International Business Trainee (IBT) Programme offers ambitious graduates from all over the world the chance to explore the core business areas of an international fashion company and gain valuable working experience in one of eight specialist fields at our headquarters in Denmark and potentially at one of our global offices.

BEING AN IBT IN RETAIL MANAGEMENT

Retail Management is a broad specialist field offering you diverse and exciting learnings and experiences from different aspects of our retail business. You will work across key areas such as retail expansion, store performance analysis, operational processes, and data-driven decision-making. You will gain hands-on experience and collaborate with cross-functional teams to support the growth and optimization of BESTSELLER’s stores, building skills in communication, planning, and problem-solving.

We strive to ensure that you are exposed to the comprehensive picture of retail in BESTSELLER during the two-year programme.

This year, we are looking for a variety of profiles to join our brands as IBT within Retail Management. Your role can take two different directions depending on your strengths and interests:

  • As an IBT within Retail Management with focus on Retail Data Science , you will help drive retail performance through advanced analytics. Your role includes developing tools for retail planning, demand forecasting, and sales analysis, while working with machine learning and AI to optimize pricing and markdown processes. You will collaborate with stakeholders to align data-driven solutions with business goals, bringing creativity and technical expertise to support the digital transformation in retail.
  • As a Retail Management IBT with focus on Retail Operations , you will play a vital role in supporting retail expansion and operations across both full-price and outlet stores. Working closely with the Retail team at headquarters, you will contribute to both strategic planning and hands-on execution. Your tasks will include monitoring expansion processes, coordinating with markets to meet deadlines, and analyzing store performance. Additionally, you will take part in operational responsibilities, supporting daily operations and engaging in store visits to gain practical insights into retail operations.

YOUR PROFILE

You are a communicative and structured individual with a passion for retail operations. You thrive in a dynamic environment and enjoy collaborating with stakeholders across teams and borders to achieve common goals. In addition, it comes natural to you to take action when you spot potential ways of optimizing our processes or stores.

Your additional qualifications:

  • A relevant Bachelor's or Master’s degree from a university or business school
  • Working experience within retail, such as practical experience from a store, is an advantage
  • Strong problem-solving skills and an analytical mindset
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office - any experience with data tools like Power BI, SQL or Python is a plus
  • Fluent in English - both spoken and written
  • International experience from studying or working abroad.

APPLICATION PROCESS

To give us a chance to learn more about you as a person, you will be asked to record a personal video of max. 2 minutes duration as a part of your application. You should use this video to show us more about who you are and tell us about your international experience. Please note that you cannot record this video before-hand as the recording module is integrated into our application system.

If you advance through the initial interview process, you will, as the last step of our assessment, be invited to join our online TryOut on 18 and 19 March 2025. Participation in the TryOut is required to be considered for the International Business Trainee Programme.
