Join Our Festive Night Shift Team as a Trading Assistant

Be our magic ingredient this Christmas and spread seasonal cheer as one of our Trading Assistants in our night shift team. Your responsibilities will include stocking shelves, date checking products, and helping unload deliveries to ensure the store is festive-ready for our customers. This is a great opportunity to be part of the festive season excitement.

This fast-paced role requires you to be active, including lifting and moving heavy shopping containers, and confident working with new technology. While you'll be part of a close-knit team, you'll also need to work independently and use your initiative, as you'll be working throughout the night.

In any area you work in, you'll take pride in doing the right thing for our customers and have keen attention to detail. Although you may have less customer interaction than daytime colleagues, you'll still be focused on providing a brilliant shopping experience.

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

Note: Many roles are temporary over the festive period, but there may also be permanent opportunities. Please check the contract type and schedule hours before applying to ensure the role suits you.

Eligibility: If the shifts cover hours before 6am or after 11pm, you must be at least 18 years old.

• Free food and hot drinks for colleagues in all stores.
• Generous holiday entitlement based on hours worked.
• Shopping discounts on gym memberships, restaurants, holidays, retail vouchers, and more.
• Family leave: Maternity and paternity leave benefits.
• Pension scheme: Sainsbury’s matches 4-7% of your contributions.
