Karina's journey at WHSmith
The culture at WHSmith is all about family. We offer the chance to progress and grow - it gives colleagues variety and keeps it interesting. Joining the business over 20 years ago and is the best thing I've ever done. I started as a Christmas temp in our High Street stores and recently I had the opportunity to move across the business to work for our InMotion Brand as a Team Leader!
