Join Our Night Shift Trading Assistants Team This Festive Season!

Be our magic ingredient this Christmas and spread seasonal cheer as a Trading Assistant in our night shift team. Your responsibilities will include stocking shelves, date checking products, and helping unload deliveries, supporting the store to deliver festive magic 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 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 a keen attention to detail. Although you may have less customer interaction than daytime colleagues, you'll ensure a brilliant shopping experience.

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

Note: Many roles will be 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 shifts cover hours earlier than 6am or later than 11pm, you must be at least 18 years old.

Legal requirement: Sainsbury's will only recruit individuals who have passed the school leaver’s age. To find out the school leaver’s age for your country, please visit:
