Would you like to be part of a retail team that are community based, offer amazing choice and genuine sustainability? We are looking for a Sales Assistant to join our store team.

**About the role**

When it comes to generating stock, maximising value, and building customer loyalty, we put a lot of trust in our retail staff.

We have a strong culture of internal progression and will actively support you to develop your career.

Our generous staff benefits include:

- 33 days annual leave including bank holidays
- 25% staff discount
- Health cash plan
- Pension with employer contribution up to 10%
- Life assurance
- Discount options for gym membership
- Discounts with a range of retailers

**About us**

With over 700 stores all over the UK and serving over 30 million customers each year via our omni-channel offerings, sustainability is at the forefront in everything we do. In one year, we save over 71,000 tonnes of items from going to waste. By keeping things in use for longer we reduce waste, helping reduce unsustainable resource use.

Everything we do comes back to funding lifesaving research for all heart and circulatory conditions. We are more ambitious and determined than ever - because the cures and treatments we need are in sight. You could be part of getting us there sooner

**How to apply**

Our Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) Strategy, Igniting Change, along with our internal EDI group, Kaleidoscope, and a growing number of employee network groups (our Affinity Groups), help us create an environment where all our colleagues and volunteers can succeed.
