Our Tesco Colleague rate of pay starts from £12.45 an hour; this increases to £13.66 for stores within the M25. Additional payments may also apply depending on location.

It's our policy to offer new colleagues a minimum of 16 guaranteed hours each week, but if you'd like to work fewer hours (to a minimum of 12), we have opportunities for this too and would love to hear from you.

The table shows the periods of time in the week we’d like you to be available to work - the availability windows. We will schedule your contracted hours within these times, and you’ll have 3 weeks’ notice of your shifts. We are happy to support flexibility if your available times match closely but not exactly to our advertised times.

Customers are at the heart of everything we do.
It takes many different people to run a store, and this role is for doers, with plenty of variety. It’s a committed role, full of daily challenges, which makes it exciting.

Being a store colleague means helping serve our shoppers better every day.
You’ll meet great people, learn new things, and be part of a diverse, inclusive team where everyone is welcome.
Whether you're seeking stability, flexibility, or career progression, this could be the role for you.

Please note: You must be over 18 to apply.

You will be responsible for:
- Knowing your customers and serving them with passion and pride.
- Being knowledgeable about store products and services.
- Working across various store areas as needed.
- Applying your training to work safely and effectively.
- Making customer-focused decisions.
- Participating in seasonal, community, and charity events.
- Understanding store performance and working with the team to improve service, sales, and reduce waste.
- Handling products carefully to maintain quality.
- Living our values and following policies.
- Accepting deliveries when required.

You will need:
- Passion for delivering excellent service.
- Ability to build rapport with customers.
- Initiative and decision-making skills.
- Ability to work well in a team.
- Punctuality, good presentation, and being a brand ambassador.

What's in it for you:
- Holiday entitlement starting at 20 days plus a personal day, rising to 22 days after 12 months, plus bank holidays.
- Flexible working requests from day one.
- Discounts including 10% off and 15% during pay weekends.
- Access to wellbeing services.
- Life cover and pension benefits.
- Various employee discounts and schemes.
- Uniform provided.
- Access to colleague networks.

About us:
Our vision is to become every customer's favourite way to shop, with a core purpose of serving our customers, communities, and the planet better every day.

We value diversity and inclusion, creating a workplace where everyone can be themselves and have equal opportunities.

We are moving towards a blended working model, combining office and remote work.

Note: Successful applicants will need to provide bank details on their start date.
