If you love delivering excellent service, then you’ll love being part of the team at Argos. Working in one of our standalone Argos retail stores, it’s so much more than just driving; you’ll be the person delivering a friendly service right to our customers' doors, making sure they get their orders exactly when they want to.
When you’re not driving, you’ll be maintaining a smooth operation in the stock room or on the shop floor so we’re always delivering the right products at the right time.

Most of our roles work a variety of shifts across the week and three shift blocks during the day: Monday to Sunday 5:00am - 1:00pm, 1:00pm - 6:00pm, 6:00pm - 10:30pm. You’ll have guaranteed hours every week, with opportunities for overtime, including supporting your local Sainsbury’s delivery operation.

For insurance purposes, you must be over 18 and have held a full UK/EU driving licence for at least 12 months with no more than 6 points. We will ask you to complete an online driving risk assessment as part of your interview, and if successful, there will be a driving assessment when you join us.

We aim to help everyone who joins us be the best they can be and are committed to being a fully inclusive retailer where our customers love to shop and our colleagues love to work!

Alongside a market-leading rate of pay, we offer a great range of benefits:

• Discount card – 10% discount off shopping at Sainsbury’s, Argos, Tu, and Habitat after four weeks. This increases to 15% off at Sainsbury’s every Friday and Saturday, and 15% off at Argos every pay day.
• Free food and hot drinks provided for colleagues in all our stores.
• Generous holiday entitlement based on hours worked.
• Shopping discounts on gym memberships, restaurants, holidays, retail vouchers, and more.
• Family leave – generous maternity and paternity leave.
• Pension – Sainsbury’s will match between 4-7.5% of your contributions.
• Sainsbury’s share schemes – buy shares at discounted prices and purchase shares monthly from your gross salary.
• Wellbeing support – including free access to our Employee Assistance Programme, a confidential service providing support and guidance on various issues.
