This role offers a unique opportunity to contribute to a renowned brand, known for its commitment to quality and customer loyalty. As a Partner-led organization, you'll be more than just an employee; you'll be a co-owner, sharing in the success and rewards of the UK's largest employee-owned business.

What Makes This Opportunity Stand Out?

  • Partner Ownership: Become a co-owner of a thriving business, with a stake in its success and a voice in its direction. This fosters a sense of belonging and shared purpose.
  • Commitment to Food Excellence: If you have a genuine interest in food and drink trends, this role allows you to immerse yourself in a world that celebrates culinary passion.
  • Exceptional Customer Experience: Your efforts will directly impact customer satisfaction, building trust and loyalty that forms the foundation of the Waitrose brand.
  • Career Development: While experience in a customer-facing role is welcomed, the emphasis is on your willingness to learn and grow. This position is an excellent entry point into the retail sector and the wider Partnership.
  • Attractive Compensation and Benefits: The role offers competitive hourly pay of £12.40. Additionally, for those enrolled in Enhanced Hours Premium arrangements, there's a Night Premium of £3.50 per hour for time worked between 22:00 and 06:00, adding significant value to late-night shifts.
  • Flexible Working: The role offers part-time hours, with flexibility to discuss your work-life balance needs. This could include flexible or compressed hours, job sharing, or shorter contract arrangements.

Key Responsibilities and What to Expect:

As a Supermarket Assistant, you'll be integral to the smooth operation of the store, engaging in a variety of essential tasks:

  • Stock Management: Ensure shelves are consistently stocked and products are presented attractively for customers.
  • Online Order Fulfillment: Play a crucial role in preparing online grocery orders for delivery, contributing to the convenience of our customers.
  • Wastage Reduction: Implement best practices for managing stock, including markdowns for items nearing their sell-by dates, demonstrating a commitment to sustainability and efficiency.
  • Team Collaboration: Support your colleagues across various store functions, including checkout operations, Click & Collect order management, and on-demand order fulfillment.
  • Store Presentation: Maintain a clean, safe, and organized working environment through general shopkeeping duties.

Considerations for Your Career Path:

  • Age Requirement: Applicants must be 18 years or over due to working time regulations.
  • Communication is Key: Strong communication skills are essential for effective teamwork and positive customer interactions.
  • Flexibility is Valued: A flexible approach to supporting the needs of the entire branch will be beneficial, especially as you integrate into the team.
  • Vetting Requirements: Be aware that some roles may be subject to pre-employment vetting, which could include DBS checks and financial probity checks. You will be informed if this applies to this role and guided through the process.
  • Application Timing: Vacancies can close early due to high applicant interest, so it is advisable to apply as soon as possible.

This Supermarket Assistant role at Waitrose & Partners offers more than just a job; it's an opportunity to join a unique employee-owned business, contribute to a beloved brand, and grow within a supportive and forward-thinking environment. If you are ready to make a difference and be part of something special, we encourage you to explore this exciting prospect.
