Availability Window
The availability windows show the periods of time in the week the employer would like you to be available to work. Sun 05:30:00 to 14:30:00; Sat 05:30:00 to 14:30:00. We will schedule your contracted hours within these times, and you will have 3 weeks’ notice of exactly when your shifts will be. We are happy to support flexibility for colleagues, so if the times you are available to work match closely but not exactly the times advertised, we would still love to hear from you.
Pay: Our Shift Leader rate starts from £14.76 per hour; this increases to £15.97 for stores inside the M25. Additional payments may apply depending on location.
It is our policy to offer new colleagues a minimum of 16 guaranteed hours each week, but if you would like to work fewer hours (to a minimum of 12) we have opportunities for this too.
