Duration: 1 Year

Start Dates: Monday 3rd July 2023

Application Deadlines: 27th January 2023 however roles are filled on a rolling basis

Annual Salary: £20,500 per annum

When you walk into a department store and are greeted by the very beautiful and inviting beauty counters, you’re seeing the work of the Retail Design teams. The L'Oréal intern in this department has a ‘roll up your sleeves’ attitude and is ready to get stuck in!

When we have a brand new store opening or a retailer is having a beauty hall re-fit it’ll be your job to assist the Retail Design Managers in delivering a counter that is making the best use of the space, conveying an exciting and interactive customer journey whilst being in line with the International Brand Guidelines.

You will...

You will assess the varying customer journey across our brands as well as our competitors and up the game. It’s a busy and fast-paced role, but seeing your designs, planning and organisation come to life is super rewarding.

Day-to-day you may be...

  • Supporting the Retail Design team with preparing and planning for new counter installations
  • Partnering with different business functions to organise a successful counter launch
  • Taking on your own projects and building up an in-depth expertise of Retail Design
  • Work closely with the visual merchandising team to ensure a 360 approach
  • Liaising with logistics on tester orders for new counter installations
  • Attend installations out of hours to support on snagging and merchandising the new counters.
  • Work on implementing latest brand furniture and strategizing the implementation of new launches
  • Regular in-store visits to track competitor activity and launches across retailers, gathering photos, details on materials and structures to create a monthly report for presentation to the Marketing Team and General Manager
  • Attending trade shows and supplier fairs on behalf of the team

You have...

In order to be successful in this role you will have:

  • Have strong communication and interpersonal skills
  • Have a good eye for detail and an awareness of current Retail Design trends
  • Able to work autonomously with great organisational and time-management skills
  • Experience in PowerPoint, Photoshop, Sketchup and Excel would be an advantage but not prerequisite.

We particularly welcome applications from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic and disabled candidates as they are currently under-represented in our organisation. We are signatories of the Race at Work Charter led by Business in the Community and are committed to improving employment opportunities for people of colour across the UK. We also welcome applications from LGB and Trans and non-binary candidates.


You are...

  • Eligible to work in the UK
  • In your second year at University on a course which enables you to take an Industrial Placement Year (unfortunately if you are graduated you are not eligible).

Next steps...

Once you click apply you will be asked some questions to check you are eligible for this role. These will questions around your current situation, whether you’re happy with the salary, location etc.

If you are eligible to apply you will then be sent a link via email to a Competency Assessment. In this we would like you to answer three competency questions, two written and one via video. Although there is no time limit on this the quicker you get it finished the quicker we can continue to move you through the process! The video element of the assessment is translated into a text and scored, so please don’t worry what you look like, just worry about what you’re saying!

If you have met our benchmark we will then send you some cognitive tests to complete. These will be sent via an email link and will give us a great idea on your numerical ability as well as testing you in a few other areas. Remember practise makes perfect so make sure you’re prepared when you give these a go!

We will then do a final review of your entire application and if successful, invite you to an Assessment Centre. Please be patient with us, sometimes it can take a few weeks before your application gets reviewed.

Our Assessment Centres this year will all be completely virtual; they will be running from when applications open until the roles are filled. These Assessment Centres are specific to function, so please be patient if you don’t get invited straight away – it might just be because your function’s Assessment Centre date isn’t until later on in the recruitment period!

Please note, if you apply for more than one role you will be put forward for the one we deem most suitable for you. If you have a strong preference, please only apply to that one role to ensure you are considered for the correct role.


  • You can apply to up to three jobs within a rolling 30-day window.
  • You cannot withdraw your application once you applied, so please make sure to choose a job that matches your dreams.
  • Please visit "Your Application Space" to see the jobs you have already applied to.
  • Please don’t create another account with a different email. If you do so, your account might be merged and your application record will be deleted.
