Our Shift Leader rate of pay starts from £14.76 an hour; this increases to £15.97 for stores inside 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.

Customers are at the heart of everything we do. 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.

1. Work in a fast-paced retail environment, with bags of variety
2. Take ownership of running duty shifts, coordinating the team to deliver a clean, well-stocked store that exceeds customer expectations
3. Be there for customers, listening to them and helping to make sure they leave the store with what they came for
4. Look for ways to improve service, including coaching your colleagues and giving feedback to the team
5. Guide and support your colleagues in-store, making sure it stays a safe place to work and shop
6. 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
7. Lead from the front, and set a great example for your colleagues in everything you do

Requirements

You will need:

1. To be a great role model, by always giving thoughtful customer service that ensures every customer’s needs are met
2. To build strong, long-lasting relationships with colleagues to create a positive and inclusive team atmosphere that encourages everyone to do their best work
3. To be a clear communicator, comfortable with using a variety of methods to keep your team well-informed and up to date
4. To be comfortable taking the lead, and overseeing the store in the absence of your Manager
5. To be a good decision maker, who’s flexible in the way you think, and comfortable handling change to ensure everything we do is right for customers and colleagues
6. To be motivating, so you can inspire your team to deliver beyond expectations
7. To be curious, and always on the lookout for ideas and opportunities to serve our customers, communities, and planet a little better every day

What's in it for You?

There are a lot of reasons why Tesco is a great place to work. Here are just a few of them:

1. There’s bags of variety. As Shift Leader, no two days are the same, and with flexible hours and shift patterns, you can work the hours that suit your lifestyle

About Us

Our vision at Tesco is to become every customer's favourite way to shop, whether they are at home or out on the move.
