Overview
To be a Seasonal Sales Assistant at The Entertainer you must be: reliable and flexible in what hours you can work (there may be extra hours if we’re busy); approachable and confident to deliver excellent customer service; physically fit and able to move stock around the store, work with deliveries and pallets, and help out in our local Tesco concession space. Merchandising, keeping the shelves full, talking to customers and handling deliveries are part of the role.
Holly, Seasonal Sales Assistant from last year says: “Working for The Entertainer is a wonderful and thrilling experience. There is never a day where I am bored or have nothing to do. I enjoy restocking and making sure all the prices are correct for all our customers. It is rewarding to see kids excited about toys; during busy weekends I replenish and make myself available for everybody, whether that’s to grab an item from the top shelf or to recommend a toy or bestseller for Christmas. I love being a Seasonal Sales Assistant as those small tasks like restocking can make a big difference to a customer visiting our store for the first time.”
Want to work in a busy toy shop at the best time of year?

At Christmas, this is no different, with a love of toys, customer service and an enthusiastic personality being a great match for the Seasonal Sales Assistant role.
