Trading Assistant

Whitby, England, gb

Be our magic ingredient this Christmas and spread some seasonal cheer as one of our Trading Assistants. From stocking shelves to being ready to help customers customers, you’ll support across the store where we need you the most. In this fast-paced, energetic and hands-on role, you can help us make good food joyful to all our customers. There’s no better time to join our team and be part of the festive season excitement. 

It's a fast-paced role so you will need to be comfortable being active, including lifting and moving heavy shopping containers, as well as being confident working with new technology. Whilst you will be a member of a close-knit team, we’ll also trust you to work alone and your initiative.

Whichever area of the store you are supporting in, you’ll take pride in doing the right thing for our customers, have a keen for detail and be passionate about being there for our customers and providing a brilliant shopping experience.
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.

If the shifts for this role cover hours earlier than 6am or later than 11pm, you will need to be at least 18 years of age.

Sainsbury's will only recruit individuals who have passed the school leaver’s age. To find out the school leavers age for your country, please visit:
