  • thrive in a fast-paced environment 
  • have a great attention to detail
  • care about providing an effortless experience to our customers
  • have no trouble multitasking 
  • Want to grow their career or take on a new challenge

This is the perfect chance to start your career with us, learn new skills and enhance your existing ones. No matter where you are in your career you’ll be joining an awesome team of experts - all here to support you and help each other deliver a world-class service to our customers.

Hours 

Our aim is to be as inclusive as possible, we welcome full-time and part-time candidates who can work shifts to meet the needs of our customers. This will include weekends and evenings.

On a full-time basis, you would work 37.5 hours per week, being scheduled for shifts across our opening hours (Monday - Friday 8am-8pm & Saturday and Sunday 9am-5:00pm)

If you’re looking for part-time hours you’ll need to be available to work your contracted hours across 4 days of the week, specifically 3 weekdays and 1 weekend day. 

You will need to be able to attend a 3-week full-time induction regardless of your contracted hours. Don’t worry, you’ll be fully paid for this. It is super important as it has been purpose-built and designed to give you the knowledge and confidence you need to be successful in the role. 

Rotas are given out 4 weeks in advance so you have plenty of time to plan ahead and enjoy your free time.
