General Merchandise Assistant

Blackwood, Wales, gb

Be our magic ingredient this Christmas. If you enjoy working in an energetic and fun environment, come and help us make good food joyful for everyone and spread a little seasonal cheer. There’s no better time to join our team and help millions of customers prepare for their celebrations and join in the excitement of the festive season!

As one of our General Merchandise Assistants, you’ll help to position and sell our fantastic Tu and Habitat brands, and make sure our homeware and entertainment products are organised and displayed to catch our customers’ eyes.

You’ll need a good attention to detail and helping customers find whatever’s on their shopping list, as well as the ability to suggest other products they’ll love. You’ll move products around and into the best position, as trends or seasons change - you could be bringing out the party outfits or the winter coats when the weather turns. We’ve got all the tools to help know which products go where in store, so you’ll always know exactly how to make the most of our stock and displays. 

We aim to make everyone who joins us be the best they can be and are committed to being a fully inclusive retailer where our customers love to shop, and our colleagues love to work! 

Whilst many of our roles will be temporary over the festive period, there may also be permanent opportunities available - please check the contract type and schedule hours before applying to ensure that the role is right for you.
