Overview
Shift Leader role at Tesco. Our shift patterns include defined availability windows and a guaranteed minimum number of hours. We offer a starting rate of pay and potential location-based increases.
Availability and pay
Our availability windows are shown in the schedule. We will schedule your contracted hours within these times, and you will have 3 weeks’ notice of your shifts. We are happy to support flexibility if your available times match closely but not exactly to those advertised.
Our Shift Leader rate of pay starts from £14.76 per hour; this increases to £15.97 for stores inside the M25. Additional payments may apply depending on location.
It’s our policy to offer new colleagues joining us a minimum of 16 guaranteed hours each week, but if you’d like to work fewer hours (to a minimum of 12) we have opportunities for this too and would still love to hear from you.
There is a requirement to be 18 or over to apply for this role.
