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

Be our magic ingredient this Christmas and spread seasonal cheer as a Trading Assistant in our night shift team. Your responsibilities will include stocking shelves, date checking products, and helping unload deliveries, supporting the store to ensure it’s ready to deliver festive magic for our customers. There's no better time to join and be part of the festive season excitement.

This is a fast-paced role requiring 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 using your initiative during the night shifts.

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

We are committed to making everyone who joins us the best they can be and to being a fully inclusive retailer 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.

Legal Requirement: Sainsbury's recruits individuals who have passed the school leaver’s age. For details, visit your country's school leaver’s age information.

Benefits

• Nightshift premium: an additional £2.45 per hour for hours 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 pay day at Argos.
• Free food and hot drinks in all 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 benefits.
• Pension scheme: Sainsbury’s matches 4-7% of your contributions.
• Share schemes: buy shares at discounted prices and contribute monthly from your gross salary.
• Wellbeing support: access to our Employee Assistance Programme for confidential support and guidance.
