About the Company:

Main business: : Hospitality and events (incl. bar work, catering and stewarding)

Our story goes back around 20 years, to our founder Gerry Ford. Armed with a passion for coffee, he had a vision to create traditional Italian cafés across Europe; places that would serve very high quality coffee and serve as neighbourhood meeting spots.
We started off simply trying to make a few local independent coffee houses work. And they did! We never aspired to be a big company; in fact, even today we see ourselves as a start-up. We have grown one coffee, one customer and one store at a time – always trying to be the best at what we do.

About the Role:

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an undergraduate to join the Commercial Team at Caffe Nero as a Range and Space Analyst on a 12 month placement.

The Commercial Team encompasses Procurement and Distribution and has responsibility for the profitable provision of goods and services for sale and use within the Caffe Nero group.

As our business grows we need to better understand the differences between store formats, locations, geography and customer types. As a result we need an analytical individual to work with the Commercial Director, Store Build and Operations teams to analyse how we best allocate product ranges, space and equipment in our stores.

The placement will be based in our Covent Garden head office in London, but will require travel to store locations to build a great understanding of the layout and challenges of our store environment.

You can expect a friendly, hard working and fast paced environment, where you can quickly learn about hospitality and retail in a multi-format organisation.
