Morrisons Retail Assistants

We are looking for customer-focused individuals with a proactive and detailed approach to their day-to-day work. A background in face-to-face customer service, experience working as part of a large and interdependent department within a complex organization and being able to demonstrate experience working in a similar catering role are all essential. 

A background of working in the grocery retail sector in a similar role is preferred but not essential, as well as experience working in a large department within a complex organization. Working on the day-to-day shop floor operations, you will be proactive in ensuring the store looks at its best at all times, being part of the team in ensuring all staff are putting the customer first and carrying out the due diligence of the store. 

Our new Morrisons Daily store supports not only the 3,000 resident students but also the students living off-campus and staff, as well as visitors to the campus. This busy store is at the heart of the student experience and we are looking for someone that can be adaptable to the day and the week’s requirements. 

We’ve got big plans for the Hospitality service at UWE Bristol and you could be part of helping us achieve this vision by being part of the team in delivering great customer service and products whilst working to strict targets.  Day to day, you’ll lead the team effectively in the store, working alongside the Store manager and Retail Assistants, as well as any Casual and Agency staff that may be involved in the running of the store, training up new members of the team, setting and working to financial targets and managing the required Due diligence processes; this role is essential in delivering an exceptional experience to all our customers.  

We expect all our retail staff to be available to work between 6:30 am and 12:30 am Monday to Sunday, with shifts on a rota basis, and you will be an integral part of this team. 

Any shifts after 8 pm attract an additional one-fifth of the hourly rate and overtime is paid at time and a half; with double time on a Sunday. 

Where is this role based?

This post is based at our lively Frenchay campus.
