**Our Culture**:
The Works is an awesome place towell, work Our atmosphere is supportive, friendly, and inclusive. A second home-from-home where you can be your best and authentic _you_.

Our environment is always moving and full of energy, yet we still make space to share must-watch TV recommendations, and our favourite page-turners. Because even superheroes need some downtime to fuel their imaginations

**Keyholder Responsibilities***:
If you’re over 18, you’ll join as a keyholder. Our Retail Sales Assistants support our Store Management team to keep the stores running like clockwork by opening, closing, and running the store when needed, (holidays, days off, sickness etc), but don’t worry we’ll train you to do this.

There are a lot of valuable skills to learn here that will benefit you in the future. You’ll also receive our additional keyholding pay enhancement when holding keys.

**Under 18?**

That's cool. If you're under 18, you won't be able to complete keyholding duties just yet, but when you reach your 18th birthday, we'll get you set up for training so that you can earn the additional keyholding pay enhancement when on keyholder duties.

**Our Purpose**:
To inspire reading, learning, creativity and play - making lives more fulfilled

We want to know what’s going great, and what needs a couple of tweaks to help make The Works the best place you’ve ever worked You’ll have opportunity to help give us that direction.
