WHAT AWAITS YOU IN YOUR APPRENTICESHIP

OUR GOODS JOURNEYS

Our Logistics department is responsible for deliveries to all our stores in Germany, Austria and the Netherlands. You will learn all about our highly complex logistical processes and help ensure that everything is in the right place at the right time.

A LOGISTICS MASTERWORK

You will experience our logistical masterworks live, and learn how we manage to get our fashion goods to each of our 2,000 stores on time, every two days.

A PLACE WITH A BUZZ

Our logistics are always buzzing: whether it’s loading or unloading trucks or packing the goods for our stores, there’s always something happening.

ON THE MOVE

We use our forklift trucks and industrial trucks to cover the distances and reach the heights in our logistics centre. It certainly adds up to a few kilometres a day.

PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT

In addition to your apprenticeship, we also support you with your personal development. You will learn how to cooperate and communicate with colleagues and external partners in a trusting way and how to act independently and in a future-oriented way. Your personal development is also complemented by smaller projects and events.

HAVE YOUR SAY, PARTICIPATE, SHAPE THINGS

Your ideas and opinions are always welcome. We look forward to discussing with you and hearing new input from you! So that you can contribute directly at Ernsting’s family, you will also be given your own small projects and learn to take on an increasing degree of responsibility for your tasks. You can also help shape your apprenticeship individually and together with other apprentices.

Opportunities for a permanent role and further development

SO, YOU’VE FINISHED YOUR APPRENTICESHIP, NOW WHAT?!

After your apprenticeship, there are many paths you can take in your future career. When you finish your apprenticeship, we will take the time to look at what the next steps in your career could be together with you.
