Meet Sam. Assistant Manager.
Primark gave me my first job when I was 16. I worked weekends on the tills, becoming supervisor then trainee manager at our Southampton store. I never left.
No Dramas
I was actually into drama at school; it really helped me grow in confidence as a person and that growth went from strength to strength at Primark. Amazing teams, colleagues, managers and training all come together to help you develop. But we’re all friends too. We’re on the same page and we genuinely love spending time with each other. It feels like a family, so when challenges do come up, you face them together. We all ultimately want the best for each other and the business.
Manager at 18
Easily my proudest achievement. Making manager at 18 wouldn’t have been possible had it not been for all that amazing support and the spot-on courses that were made available to me. I had the opportunity to go out to other stores too, and even plenty of time in-store to learn. It feels almost like an apprenticeship.

I always knew I’d leave my home town eventually to explore further afield.
