Workplace

We employed over 63,000 people across Boots UK as at 31 March 2011.

The majority of our colleagues work in our stores and we also employ people in our Nottingham support office and in our logistics operation. Our people and the care they give to our customers are the reason for our success. Making sure Boots UK is a rewarding and supportive place to work makes sense both from a business and an ethical point of view.
