About our company
In 2019, Savers was awarded 4th place in the Sunday Times best big companies to work for, the highest retailer in the list, recognizing the engagement within our teams and our commitment to our people.
Savers was acquired by AS Watson in 2000 to enhance our value-led offer in the UK. Our aim is to be the most competitively priced health and beauty retailer on the high street, with a clean, contemporary store setting and friendly, trained colleagues. We offer branded products at affordable prices, with over 400 stores across England, Scotland, Northern Ireland, and Wales, and continue to expand.
Outline of the role
The Retail Apprenticeship involves working as a full-time team member in our store, assisting with customer experience and learning about retail operations. It offers a fast-paced, fun environment that prepares you for bigger challenges. We recognize Sales Assistants as potential future Supervisors and will support your skill development and career progression through our in-house training.
Duties include:
* Demonstrating exceptional customer service
* Understanding the business and maintaining brand reputation
* Promoting products using your knowledge
* Highlighting promotional offers to meet sales targets

Your training will be in-store over the first 12 months, with no college days or homework. At the end, you'll discuss your experience, complete a multiple-choice test, and an observation within your role. Support will be provided throughout to achieve your Retailer Level 2 Apprenticeship.
