You must be aged 18 or over to be a customer team leader at Co-op, as you’ll need to authorise age-related sales.

We’ll look to you to help lead the store team – coaching and supervising our Customer Team Members and deputising for the Store Manager, while also delivering great customer service and performing a wide range of other tasks around the store like re-stocking shelves and cleaning up spillages.
At Co-op, we do things a different way. For over 175 years we’ve been focused on making things fairer for our members and their communities, and as a colleague we promise to take care of you. You’ll get support for your physical, mental, and financial wellbeing, as well as market-leading policies to help you through life events from bereavement and pregnancy loss to fertility treatment and menopause.

7. Build relationships and engage with your local community, supporting the delivery of the local Co-op community plan.
