Then there's a generous staff discount, a Share Save scheme, pension and life assurance, health insurance, a holiday allowance that increases with length of service and a wide range of other benefits. We're committed to promoting talent from within too, which means you'll be well-supported to build a rewarding career with an individual development plan and lots of training on offer. And while you'll need the flexibility to cover store opening hours (including weekends) as well as the flexibility to cover other stores, there's no evening work to worry about - and no working on Christmas Eve or Boxing Day either.
