Work
Most of your apprenticeship is spent working. You’ll learn on the job by getting hands-on experience.
What you'll do at work
We are looking to recruit an Apprentice Retail Supervisor for our Bridlington shop. We offer a permanent full-time position working a variety of shifts, 5 days from 7 each week.
As one of our apprentices, you will:
* Make all of our customers feel welcome with a friendly smile and a simple hello
* Help customers find the items they are looking for
* Give a fast and friendly service at the tills, always offering help to pack and leaving a good impression with a friendly thank you and goodbye
* Handle stock with care whilst working deliveries, quickly placing products into our freezers and onto our shelves ready for our customers to buy
* Work with the rest of your team to complete the daily and weekly routines that keep our shops clean and tidy
* Open and close the shop, handle cash, place orders and support your manager in leading the team to run an efficient shop and provide great service to our customers
You will need:
* A friendly, positive, hardworking approach to work
* To enjoy being busy, as there is always something to do. As a junior member of management, you’ll jump from putting out deliveries to serving on the till, helping customers on the shop floor, organising other team members and more
* To be reliable as you will be an important part of a small team
* Your colleagues and customers will depend upon you to do your best on each shift and not let the team down
* A bit of flexibility when it comes to your shifts. When other members of your team are off enjoying their holidays, we may need you to work slightly different hours to cover for them. Rotas are planned three weeks in advance and your commitments outside of work will be taken into consideration when planning your shifts
* Ensure that all work set by our apprenticeship provider is completed on time and to the best of your ability
To become an apprentice, you must:
Be 16 or over, not already in full-time education
You can start an apprenticeship whether you’re starting your career, want a change or you're upskilling in your current job. You can have a previous qualification like a degree and still start an apprenticeship.
As an apprentice, you’ll:
* Have regular one-to-one sessions with a dedicated trainer either remotely or through visits to your workplace
* Learn and train for a specific job
* Get paid and receive holiday leave
* Get hands-on experience in a real job
* Study for at least 20% of your working hours
* Complete assessments during and at the end of your apprenticeship
* Be on a career path with lots of future potential

* Each apprentice will be supported throughout the apprenticeship by a structured programme of teaching, e-learning, face-to-face training and workplace mentoring; this will encourage and help them to meet the requirements of the new standards and will prepare them for the end-of-point assessment
