Building Stronger Ties: ESC Clermont Business School and Leroy Merlin Officialize Their Partnership.

Leroy Merlin, a chain of stores driven by robust values such as respect, proximity, audacity, trust, autonomy, and commitment, embodies a culture of sharing. Aligned with these values, ESC Clermont Business School has cultivated a robust relationship with Leroy Merlin over the years. This partnership, formalized in the presence of many of the company’s work-study students, signifies a commitment to mutual growth.

A Collaborative Journey:

Leroy Merlin actively engages in the life of the school, participating in key events orchestrated by the Corporate Relations department. From presentation evenings and departmental stages of the “Les Négociales” challenge to the Corporate Forum and entrance examination juries, Leroy Merlin plays a pivotal role.

Beyond events, Leroy Merlin collaborates with the school in training and educational support. Mr. Nativel, the store manager, contributes to expert committees in the retail sector, and on-site visits are integrated into the curriculum for final-year Bachelor’s degree students specializing in Retail Management.

Commitments in Partnership:

By formalizing this partnership, Leroy Merlin commits to sustaining its educational activities with ESC Clermont BS. This includes experience sharing, business meetings, event organization, facilitating access to the field for research projects, and providing opportunities such as internships, sandwich courses, and initial employment for ESC Clermont BS students and graduates.

Opportunities for Students:

Work-linked training is foundational to Leroy Merlin’s recruitment pool, making it the third most sought-after company among ESC Clermont Business School students. The company offers a 5-star career path and a distinctive experience for work-study students. Leroy Merlin is dedicated to long-term support for students in building their professional future while integrating them into the life and culture of the company.

Formalizing the partnership with Leroy Merlin is a source of great satisfaction for ESC Clermont. This collaboration, emblematic of our retail sector, provides students with a learning experience accompanied by high-quality support. The agreement sets the stage for further collaboration, aiming to meet the evolving recruitment and training needs of the company in the years ahead.
