LVMH recruited more than 60,000 people around the world in 2023, including over 30,000 early career professionals under 30.
LVMH has long been actively engaged in passing on expertise to new generations and has consistently pursued a robust strategy, including support and initiatives by its Maisons around three pillars: relations with the academic world, sharing knowledge online, and internal programs for early career professionals.
The LVMH Group regularly forges new partnerships with educational institutions in a variety of areas. In 2023, LVMH hosted more than 600 events during which Group employees engaged with students at major schools (HEC Paris, ESSEC, Sciences Po Paris, EDHEC, CentraleSupélec, Ecole Polytechnique, EHL Ecole Hôtelière de Lausanne and others), sharing their experience at our 75 Maisons and discussing the challenges facing the luxury industry in a continually changing environment.
This longstanding support for partner schools has also materialized in the online program INSIDE LVMH program, launched in March 2021. This educational website is available to both students and experienced professionals, regardless of their background or geographic location. It proposes access to exclusive continent on the challenges of LVMH’s six business segments, along with the expertise and diverse métiers at LVMH Maisons.
The platform also enables participants to earn the INSIDE LVMH Certificate by completing a 30-hour immersive course with themed modules on subjects ranging from Luxury and Society, Supply Chain and Retail, to the LVMH Group environmental roadmap, as well as case studies. INSIDE LVMH certification is a chance for early career professionals to prepare for their professional adventure, enhance their resume and get ready for job interviews. To date, more than 260,000 people have signed up on the INSIDE LVMH platform around the world, and 78,000 people have earned certification since the launch of the program. Registration for the next class is open until May 16.
LVMH and its Maisons also propose around 40 different graduate programs. These career-boosting programs are designed to expand the skillsets of early career professionals and deepen their experience in luxury métiers within the LVMH ecosystem.
Furthermore, in 2023, 18,000 people at LVMH took advantage of opportunities to change positions, moving to a new role within their company, joining a new Maison, another business sector, or taking up a new position in another country.
The LVMH Group thus embodies a vast ecosystem where talents can thrive, learning continually throughout their careers, expanding their networks and crafting their personal career itinerary within one of the Group’s six business segments.
