Tesco Colleague - Newmarket Extra, Urgent, Immediate Start
TescoOverview
About the role
Tesco's Tesco Colleague rate of pay starts from £12.02 an hour; this increases to £13.15 for stores within the M25. Additional payments may also apply depending on location and skills.
It’s Tesco's policy to offer new colleagues joining Tesco a minimum of 16 guaranteed hours each week, but if you’d like to work fewer hours (to a minimum of 12) Tesco have opportunities for this too and would still love to hear from you.
Availability
The table shows the periods of time in the week Tesco’d like you to be available to work – the availability windows. Tesco will schedule your contracted hours within these times, and you’ll have 3 weeks’ notice of exactly when your shifts will be. Tesco is happy to support flexibility for Tesco's colleagues; therefore, if the times you’re available to work match closely but not exactly to the times Tesco is advertising, Tesco’d still love to hear from you.
Customers are at the heart of everything Tesco do.
It takes lots of different people to run a store and this is a job for doers, with plenty of variety. It’s a committed role, full of everyday challenges, but that’s one of the things that makes it so exciting.
