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 joining us 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 still 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 exactly when your shifts will be. We are happy to support flexibility for our colleagues, therefore if the times you are available to work match closely but not exactly to the times we are advertising, we’d still love to hear from you.

Customers are at the heart of everything we do.
It takes lots of different people to run a store and this is a job for doers, with plenty of variety. It’s a committed role, full of everyday challenges, but that's one of the things that makes it so exciting.
Being a colleague in one of our stores means that you will help to serve our shoppers better every day.
You’ll meet great people, learn new things and be part of a diverse team where everyone is welcome.
Whether you are looking for stability or flexibility to suit your lifestyle, or the opportunity to progress your career, this can be the role for you.

Please note you must be over 18 to apply for this role.

Responsibilities include:

• Knowing your customers and serving them with passion and pride.
• Being knowledgeable about the products and services within the store.
• Working across the store in service, picking, and replenishment areas.
• Practicing training to work safely, effectively, and serve customers brilliantly.
• Making customer-focused decisions and delivering routines that meet their needs.
• Participating in seasonal, community, and charity events.
• Understanding store performance and contributing to service, sales, waste reduction, and profit.
• Handling products carefully to maintain quality.
• Living our values, making everyone feel welcome, and following policies.
• Accepting deliveries into the store when required.

Requirements:

• A passion for delivering great service with a friendly attitude.
• Ability to build rapport with customers.
• Initiative and decision-making skills for customer benefit.
• Teamwork and good communication skills.
• Punctuality, presentation, and professionalism as a brand ambassador.

Benefits include:

• Discounts including 10% off and 15% during pay weekends, saving up to £2,000 annually with the Colleague Clubcard.
• Free wellbeing services and resources.
• Life cover of five times your pay and a pension with up to 7.5% matching contributions.
• Various other benefits such as discounts, shares, cycle schemes, and more.
