Majestic Retail

Our people

A people business

The heart and soul of everything we do

They say retail is a people business – and you won’t find a retailer anywhere in the UK where that old adage rings truer than it does at Majestic.

Teamwork, passion and commitment

Teamwork, passion and commitment

Our success over 45 years has been built on our brilliant people. They truly are the heart and soul of everything we do – particularly those in our stores. We are proud of our Majestic DNA, centred around teamwork, our passion for the products we sell, our commitment to service excellence and our dedication to helping customers discover new wines they will love.

Education drives success

Education drives success

At Majestic, we know that doesn’t happen by accident. Our enduring success is driven by hiring great people and investing in their learning and development. Majestic is one of the biggest wine educators in Europe, funding and coaching our colleagues to around 400 Wine and Spirit Education Trust (WSET) qualifications every year. Every single one of our 1,000+ store colleagues are either educated or working towards their WSET Level 2, with Store Managers at Level 3. A number of them even have a WSET Diploma.

The Happiest Place to Work

The Happiest Place to Work

We also invest heavily in opening career progression opportunities for all of our colleagues, operating six L&D programmes that offer something for everyone, no matter which career path you want to take with Majestic. We are proud that our commitment to developing our teams was recognised when we were named the Happiest Place to Work at the prestigious Retail Week Awards in 2024.
