Tesco's UK apprenticeships are mainly in its stores, distribution network and Booker wholesale business, from a Level 2 retail apprenticeship for school leavers to HGV driving and a London Business Management degree apprenticeship with the University of Kent. We found no current Tesco technology or digital apprenticeship; its tech early-careers routes are graduate schemes and internships.
