Join Our Night Shift Team as a Trading Assistant this Christmas!

Be our magic ingredient this Christmas and spread seasonal cheer as one of our Trading Assistants in our night shift team. From stocking shelves to date checking products and helping unload deliveries, you'll support across the store to ensure it's ready to deliver festive magic for our customers. There’s no better time to join our team and be part of the festive season excitement.

This is a fast-paced role that requires you to be active, including lifting and moving heavy shopping containers, and confident working with new technology. While you'll be part of a close-knit team, you'll also need to work independently and use your initiative, as you'll be working throughout the night.

In any area you work in, you'll take pride in doing the right thing for our customers and have a keen attention to detail. Although you may have less customer interaction than daytime colleagues, you'll still be focused on providing a brilliant shopping experience.

We aim to help everyone who joins us reach their potential and are committed to being a fully inclusive retailer where our customers love to shop and our colleagues love to work!

Note: Many roles will be temporary over the festive period, but there may also be permanent opportunities. Please check the contract type and schedule hours before applying to ensure the role suits you.

Eligibility: If shifts include hours before 6am or after 11pm, you must be at least 18 years old.

Additional Information: Sainsbury's recruits individuals who have passed the school leaver’s age. For details, visit your country's education authority website.

• Nightshift premium: an additional £2.45 per hour worked between midnight and 5am (where applicable).
• Discount card: 10% off at Sainsbury’s, Argos, Tu, and Habitat after four weeks, increasing to 15% on Fridays and Saturdays at Sainsbury’s and on paydays at Argos.
• Free food and hot drinks in all our stores.
• Generous holiday entitlement based on hours worked.
• Shopping discounts on gym memberships, restaurants, holidays, retail vouchers, and more.
• Family leave: maternity and paternity leave options.
• Pension scheme: Sainsbury’s matches 4-7% of your contributions.
• Sainsbury’s share schemes: buy shares at discounted prices and invest monthly from your salary.
• Wellbeing support: confidential Employee Assistance Programme offering support and guidance on various issues.
