  • Supporting the team by staying flexible and helping wherever needed – because we’re stronger together
  • Keeping the shop clean, tidy, and well stocked throughout the day
  • Ensuring displays look their best and product quality is maintained
  • Following correct stock rotation procedures
  • Working collaboratively during busy periods to ensure the best experience for customers and colleagues alike

What We’re Looking For

  • Someone who always puts the customer first?
  • A person with a can do attitude who enjoys getting stuck in and helping out?
  • A team player who believes we’re stronger together?
  • Someone who thrives in the fast paced energy of a busy shop?

  • Discounts at over 1,000 retailers, including Asda, Aldi, cinemas, holidays, and more
  • Career development opportunities – we love to promote and develop from within
