Job Details

Are you ready to challenge yourself in a two-year programme in a big international fashion company? Are you ambitious, energetic, and do you strive to be the best? Can you create essential results when things are moving fast, and do you want to take part in ensuring the future growth of BESTSELLER? 

Then you might be the one we are looking for to join our next team of International Business Trainees, starting in June 2022. If you have what it takes to become one of BESTSELLER’s future key employees, this is a great opportunity for you to show and develop your skills. 

About the International Business Trainee Programme (IBT) 

You will become part of a talented team consisting of around 25 IBTs with different nationalities and professional backgrounds. During the IBT programme, there will be joint activities and school periods for the entire IBT team, but in your everyday work, you will be based in one of BESTSELLER’s brands or departments where you work closely together with your colleagues. In BESTSELLER, we strongly believe in learning by doing and you will therefore be challenged in your work and experience a high level of responsibility. 

The programme consists of three periods of practical work experience. The first period takes place in our headquarters in Denmark. The destination of the following work period will be decided during the programme depending on which skills and learnings you have acquired during the first work period. The last destination preparing you for a potential full-time position at BESTSELLER will take place in Denmark again. During the 2-year programme, you will join the rest of your IBT team for four school periods, which include both theoretical and practical training as well as a final exam. The school periods will mainly take place in Denmark but will also include study trips abroad. 

The IBT Programme focuses on developing business specialists within the following fields: 

  • Design 
  • Buying 
  • Sales Management 
  • Retail Management 
  • E-Commerce 
  • IT - Business & Technology Development 
  • PEOPLE (Digital Marketing) 
  • Sustainability

Terms of employment 
Aside from being part of a dynamic and result-oriented team and working in an inspiring environment, BESTSELLER offers you an IBT package consisting of: 

  • fully financed accommodation throughout the entire two-year period. Expenses paid by BESTSELLER per month: around DKK 5,500 (approximately EUR 736).  
  • a monthly salary: 
  • Year 1: DKK 17,000 before taxes (approximately EUR 2,275).  
  • Year 2: DKK 19,000 before taxes (approximately EUR 2,543).  
  • a financed trip for each Summer and New Year’s break to your home country.  
  • security and insurance package.  
  • financed study trips abroad to both retail and production locations of BESTSELLER 

Your Profile 
In addition to a relevant education within your specialist field, you are the type of person who strongly desires to interact in an international environment, and you have a natural curiosity that drives you to learn about other cultures. To become a successful IBT at BESTSELLER, it is important that you possess the right mix of both personal and professional skills. You practice a balance between a proactive way of working and being patient if your tasks require. 

Your qualifications: 

  • A proactive and enterprising mind-set with the ability to seek new solutions and act on them 
  • A flexible and adaptable approach to your tasks and responsibilities in order to navigate in a dynamic environment 
  • An energetic, independent, and result-oriented personality combined with strong business sense 
  • An ambitious yet humble and loyal personality 
  • A relevant educational background at a higher level than an upper secondary education, such as a degree from a Business College, University or another educational background  
  • Two years of work experience of relevance to your specialist field is an advantage but not a requirement (from either a student job, an internship or a full-time job) 
  • Several years of relevant full-time work experience may in some cases compensate for a lower educational level 
  • Fluent in English - both spoken and written (Danish is not a requirement!)  
  • Experience from the fashion industry is an advantage 

We look forward to hearing from you
