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.

It takes a lot of great people to run one of our stores, and it takes a great Shift Leader to support them all and keep things running smoothly. From helping customers to making sure store operations stay on track, being a Shift Leader at Tesco is a truly rewarding role. You’ll face lots of interesting challenges as you oversee the store from the shop floor and strive to make things just that little bit better for customers, colleagues and communities, every day.

As a Shift Leader you’ll:

• Work in a fast-paced retail environment, with bags of variety
• Take ownership of running duty shifts, coordinating the team to deliver a clean, well-stocked store that exceeds customer expectations
• Be there for customers, listening to them and helping to make sure they leave the store with what they came for
• Look for ways to improve service, including coaching your colleagues and giving feedback to the team
• Guide and support your colleagues in-store, making sure it stays a safe place to work and shop
• Maintain a great understanding of how your store is performing, and assist managers in delivering any actions that help improve the running of the store

Our vision at Tesco is to become every customer's favourite way to shop, whether they are at home or out on the move. Our core purpose is ‘Serving our customers, communities and planet a little better every day’. Serving means more than a transactional relationship with our customers.

So, talk to us throughout your application about how we can support.
