The work you do here matters- it helps customers, supports your team, and builds skills that can shape your future. Shifts typically last 8-9 hours, including weekends, early mornings and evenings. The work can be physically demanding and lifting will be required. We won’t pretend it’s easy, but you’ll learn how to work independently and adaptably, and your effort will make a real difference.

Information about the scheme

A variety of roles

Lots of learning

• As part of the programme, you may also need to gain Maths and English qualifications called Functional Skills, which are equivalent to GCSEs. These are completed in-store as part of your daily work, so you can learn and earn at the same time.
