Testimonial

Holly, Seasonal Sales Assistant from last year says: "Working for The Entertainer is a wonderful and thrilling experience, there is never a day where I am bored or have nothing to do. I enjoy restocking and making sure all the prices are correct for all our customers, and I like seeing kids get excited about seeing their favourite toys in stock. For me this is very rewarding and I love seeing the excited and thrilled looks on their faces. On the weekends when it is especially busy, I like to replenish and make myself available for everybody, whether that’s to grab an item off the top shelf or to recommend a toy or bestseller for Christmas. I love being a Seasonal Sales Assistant as I feel that those little jobs like restocking can make a big difference to a customer coming in to our store for the first time."
