Zara Reading Re-Opening! Full Time And Part Time Sales Assistants

Overview

This is a 3-month temporary contract. There may be the possibility of an extension or a permanent role, depending on business needs, attendance and performance - but it isn\'t guaranteed. This is a hands-on, fast-moving retail role. You\'ll learn in real time: supported by your team and learning by doing. It won\'t be the right role for everyone - and we\'re okay with that. It is a great role for people who enjoy staying busy, take pride in doing things properly, and feel energized in a lively environment.

What you\'ll be doing

• Providing great customer service, even at busy times
• Working across the shop floor, stockroom, deliveries and tills
• Processing high volumes of stock accurately and efficiently
• Following clear procedures to help keep everyone safe
• Supporting your team to keep the store running smoothly
• Being an ambassador for our sustainability commitments

Who tends to thrive here

People who do well in this role usually:

• Enjoy an active, operational job and like to keep moving
• Take ownership and follow through on what needs doing
• Are adaptable and comfortable when things change quickly
• Stay calm and respectful under pressure, showing resilience and emotional intelligence
• Like being part of a team and helping build a positive store community
• See retail as a longer-term opportunity, with the ambition to grow into commercial, visual or people-management roles

Previous retail experience can be helpful, but it\'s not essential. Reliability, attitude and shared values matter most.

Availability & flexibility (please read carefully)

• As weekends are key trading days, weekend work will be required depending on your scheduled hours
• Your availability will be agreed before you start, and is expected to remain consistent once in role
• This role may include early starts, late finishes and busy trading periods
