Our locations
With over 400 stores nationwide, Distribution Centres across the country and Contact Centres in Enderby, Doncaster and Leicester, there’s a place for everyone to make their mark. We also have a London office, bringing teams together in the heart of the capital.
Our Head Office is the NEXT Enderby Campus, full of modern workspaces, restaurants and great places to collaborate. Our on-site nursery is even rated ‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted. From Istanbul to Shanghai, our global sourcing teams keep the business evolving and moving 24/7.
"When my friend told me about NEXT, my assumption was that all Head Offices are in London. But the Head Office is in Leicester and it's the big flagship. It's clear everyone wants to work here, as it's a growing business that gets a big market share on the high street."

"Not to be biased, but it's the best job that I've personally ever had.”
"The sense of community and the level of support for trainees is exceptional. You come in and they ease you into it. The trainee house, where I'm currently living, is nicer than any uni accommodation I've ever been in. It's really good how they look after trainees here. They really help you settle in and make connections, which is so important when you're starting out."
