About Waitrose & Partners
We’re the John Lewis Partnership, a continuing experiment to create a better way of doing business. We’re driven by the extraordinary vision and values of our founder, John Spedan Lewis, who created our model of co-ownership almost 100 years ago. He believed businesses would be more successful if employees were at the centre of everything they did. And because of his vision, we’re more than employees. We’re owners. And that’s why we’re called Partners.
The Partnership is the UK’s largest employee-owned business and home to our two cherished retail brands - John Lewis & Partners and Waitrose & Partners. Everything we do is powered by our unique purpose, which puts the happiness of Partners at our core through worthwhile and satisfying employment. Every one of us is committed to inspiring and delighting our customers through quality products, great quality food and outstanding service because for us, it's personal.

PRINCIPLE ONE - “The Partnership’s ultimate purpose is the happiness of all its members, through their worthwhile and satisfying employment in a successful business. Because the Partnership is owned in Trust for its members, they share the responsibilities of ownership as well as its rewards - profit, knowledge and power.”

Truly embracing individuals’ contributions, regardless of their age, gender, race, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation, social background, religion or belief. Having a diverse and inclusive culture throughout the business is vital for our future success and that’s why it is at the heart of our ultimate purpose; the happiness of all our Partners.

As co-owners we all have a share in the business and a shared commitment to go above and beyond for each other and our customers.
We have a set of five values that were created by Partners, for Partners, to explain what it means to be a Partner and what makes a great one. They also guide our commitment to empower all Partners who work here, whichever part of the business they work in, and drive our ‘For us, it’s personal’ promise to our customers.

In October 2020 we unveiled our five-year, self-funding, Partnership Plan. It positions Waitrose and John Lewis as the go-to brands for customers who want quality, value and sustainability and was the result of seven months' work, where we listened to feedback from more than 10,000 customers, over 100 suppliers and local community groups and 12,000 Partners, who submitted more than 650 ideas.
And who is at the heart of this plan... our Partners of course.
