About the role

Christmas in Boots is our most exciting time of the year, and it can be very busy, so we’ll provide you with all the training and support you need to help you be at your best.

You will work in a Boots store and report into the Assistant or Store Manager and your role would be to pick and pack our boots.com customer orders, work in our back shop, run our stock room and support with deliveries and stock management 

You will also:

  • Process online customer boots.com orders to a high standard using a handheld device.
  • Prepare online customer boots.com orders for customers to collect from store or home delivery.
  • Obtain the relevant information and locate the required stock from the stockroom and salesfloor to pack and dispatch online orders.
  • Support the store’s daily operational activities including stocking shelves and general housekeeping.
  • Work as a team to solve any issues and meet daily targets.

What you’ll need to have

Full training is provided for this role, but these are the essential skills or experience needed to succeed in this role:

  • Enjoy following process and working at pace.
  • Enjoy working collaboratively as part of a team.
  • Communicate and listen effectively.
  • Comfortable learning about and using new technology, including handheld mobile devices to process online orders.

It would be great if you also have

These are desirable skills or experience and are not essential, so we would welcome applications from candidates that don’t match this additional criteria:

  • Experience in a retail or warehouse environment
  • Familiar with the products Boots sells so you can quickly identify them to pack online boots.com order

Our benefits
  • Generous employee discounts
  • Access to free, 24/7 counselling and support through TELUS Health, our Employee Assistance Programme.

Why Boots

At Boots, we foster a working environment where consideration and inclusivity help everyone to be themselves and reach their full potential. We are proud to be an equal opportunity employer, passionate about embracing the diversity of our colleagues and providing a positive and inclusive working environment for all. As the heart of everything we do at Boots, it's with you, we change for the better.
