The Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Hi everyone, I'm Nina Bartier and welcome to my duvet flip. I'm here with Jack. Really excited to be here, Jack, to introduce your amazing podcast. A great opportunity to talk to young people about career journeys and to share my experience and advice for what it's worth. And looking forward to having a chat, jack.

Here we are.

Nina, what a brilliant introduction.

And thank you to you for giving your time.

And what I believe is going to be a lot of learnings and lessons today.

How are we?

I'm good.

I probably should have said something about what I do.

Should I kick off with that?

Yes, let's start.

What do you do? So I'm the executive director for strategy and commercial development at the John Lewis Partnership. Now, I don't know how many of your listeners will know

what the John Lewis partnership is, but it's a business that owns John Lewis, the department

store chain. We've got about 34 stores around stores around, around the UK, and we sell

everything from, you know, garden furniture to pots and pans to underwear. And we also own

waitros, which is a supermarket chain that, about 350 stores around the UK. And we sell pretty

much everything that you'd expect the supermarket

to sell, but we focus on quality and, you know, good origins for food and supporting farmers

and making sure that customers have ethics and quality at the heart of what they eat and buy.

I'm really good at Christmas outfits. We like to think so, yeah. Did you watch this year?

Yeah, I love it.

Yeah, I love it.

We're very proud of that one actually.
