career development

In fact, the reputation of our people is what sets us apart from the competition. In support of this we place a heavy emphasis on continuous professional development. As you would expect we provide challenging training and development to support this. Furthermore our rapidly expanding organisation offers significant career opportunities for those who deliver great performance.
dunnhumby has a range of programmes which underpins our learning approach by providing access to one of the most comprehensive ranges of e-learning available, Harvard Manage Mentor. There is also a range of security and safety modules available. One of our main methods of client engagement, “the shop” can also be learnt via e-learning. We have a full on-boarding process which provides access to a number of senior managers who deliver the context and comprehension to enable people to survive and thrive.
We also offer a range of training programmes which have been tailored especially for dunnhumby and they are designed to achieve specific objectives, e.g. to enable client facing people to reach new levels of client engagement. Access to these programmes is via management nomination. Internal expert’s compliment these externally run programmes by providing seminars and classes in the latest analytic techniques. Suites of programmes and available resources are grouped under the dunnhumby capabilities which provide easy access to understanding what training is available.
We have a dynamic environment which provides significant learning and development opportunities for those looking to grow themselves as they in turn grow the company. Often faced with “impossible” situations dunnhumby employees constantly stretch themselves to reach new levels of performance and understanding.
As the company grows opportunities for advancement occur on a regular basis. Sometimes these opportunities take the form of global assignments and projects which also provide rich learning opportunities. However dunnhumby also supports and encourages those who want to develop specialist skills sets, move laterally to gain greater insight to our business and those who want to perform to the best of their ability in the same role. We have a comprehensive internal vacancy site where job opportunities posted. Additionally we have a number of mentors in the business who can provide counsel on which direction to follow.
