About the Company:

Main business: Retail, sales and purchasing

You’ll plug directly into the thrill of life with TJX Companies, Inc. - a global retail phenomenon with over 3,600 stores in nine countries across three continents and over 216,000 associates. We have an annual turnover of over $30.9 billion, globally (FY16) and we are excited about our opportunities for the future and confident in our ability to grow to be a $40 billion company (although we won’t stop there!).

About the Role:

We’ll give you real responsibility – fast. Finance at TJX Europe is dynamic, strategic and forward-looking, so you won’t be balancing the books. Instead, you’ll work with all parts of the business and get great exposure to different ways of working, plus our diverse and talented teams.

As you’ll work in one of our core Finance areas, you’ll have the chance to gain in-depth professional knowledge of one particular area, as well as an appreciation for the wider business. You’ll also develop an understanding of how finance adds real value to everything we do. The skills you grow might include financial reporting, analysis and accountancy techniques.

Ultimately, you’re not only looking to start your career. You’re looking for an unforgettable journey. You want to be part of something huge. Something global. A 12-month Finance placement with TJX Europe is where it can all begin.

Wherever your placement takes you, you’ll get lots of training, both on and off the job. So you can expect plenty of practical opportunities to put your new abilities to the test and see the difference you can make. Perform well and you could earn yourself a place on our European Graduate Programme.

Requirements:

Alongside the requirements listed below, if you have European language skills – particularly German or Polish – that would be great. And if you’ve lived and worked in Europe, even better. In a business like ours, these are great assets to have.

• Studying towards a degree in any discipline – but must have a genuine interest in finance
• About to undergo a 12-month Industrial Placement as part of your third year
• Natural curiosity, flexibility and a talent for connecting with people
• Good communication skills are really important, as challenging views and influencing decisions will be a big part of your role
