Summary of the program and taking over the role

From entry level to manager – faster than you think.
A few months are enough to gain real experience and take your first managerial position. The Akcja Operacja program is not theory - it is daily practice and development in a dynamic retail environment.

Build your career on courage and curiosity.
You don't need retail experience to get started - all you need is a desire to learn, test your skills and get out of your comfort zone. This program is a chance for young, ambitious people who aren't afraid of challenges.

Learning by doing – this is what real development looks like.
Theory? Only at the beginning. Later, there is only practice, fast pace and real responsibility. The talent program is a path that changes the way of thinking and prepares for the role of a leader in the retail industry.

The biggest surprise? The energy of the team! It's amazing how much you can get from being around people who support each other and have a common goal - development, not only your own, but also the whole group. Akcja Operacja is a place where ideas come to life and you discover that you can do more than you think.

Natalia, participant of the Akcja Operacja program
Taking part in the Operation Action was a bullseye! From day one I felt that I was part of something really big and important. Every day is a new challenge, a lot of practical knowledge and great support from the team. I am glad that I decided to join - it is an experience that gives me mega energy and confidence that I am on the right professional path.

Michał, participant of the Akcja Operacja program
Conquering peaks in Biedronka is a journey that teaches us that every new experience brings us closer to success and determines personal development.

Recruiter

Recruitment begins in May 2026. After submitting your application, you will be asked to complete the recruitment form. The second stage is an invitation to participate in a recruitment game focused on on examining the managerial competences and analytical skills that are key for our organization. The link to the game will be sent to people who are positively verified at the recruitment form stage.. After completing the game, you'll receive feedback from us – whether you progress or are rejected at this stage. Subsequent meetings will include interviews with regional HR, then central HR. The final stage is a final panel where you'll have the opportunity to present your skills to Biedronka management. We plan to start hiring in October 2026.

Of course! We invite our employees to participate in the recruitment process.

The implementation process is divided into several stages and will be tailored to your experience - for example, if you are already our employee, employed as a Salesperson-Cashier, this stage will be skipped and you will immediately start the implementation at the Deputy Store Manager stage. The standard path starts with a Salesperson-Cashier and getting to know all of their duties - working at the cash register, customer service or baking bread. Then we will start the implementation for the Deputy Store Manager, and then the Store Manager, so as to get to know the cross-section of challenges in each position.
