You should be knowledgeable about a diverse array of genres, from thrillers to science fiction, children's literature to non-fiction. Our customers are central to our mission, so for our Booksellers, no effort is too great. This means proactively engaging with customers and fostering strong relationships through your enthusiasm for literature, as well as sharing information about our exceptional offers.

We recognize your hard work in contributing to WHSmith's success and ensuring customer satisfaction. In addition to your salary, pension scheme, paid annual leave, and employee discounts, we offer a variety of deals from retail partners to help you save money and create lasting memories, whether through dining experiences, exciting outings, or entertainment options.
Regardless of what the future holds, our Employee Assistance Programme is available to support your well-being, whether physical, mental, or financial.
