Join Our Festive Night Shift Team as a Trading Assistant

Be our magic ingredient this Christmas and spread seasonal cheer by joining our night shift team as a Trading Assistant. You'll support various store activities such as stocking shelves, checking product dates, and unloading deliveries to ensure the store is ready to deliver festive magic to our customers. This is a great opportunity to be part of the festive season excitement.

This fast-paced role 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 work independently and use your initiative, especially during night shifts.

Whichever area you work in, you'll take pride in doing the right thing for our customers and have a keen attention to detail. Your role may involve less customer interaction than daytime roles, but you'll still focus on providing a brilliant shopping experience.

We are committed to making everyone who joins us the best they can be and fostering an inclusive environment where our customers love to shop and our colleagues love to work.

Note: Many roles are temporary over the festive period, but there may 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.
