As a Seasonal Colleague at Tesco in Oban, you will help keep the store running smoothly during busy periods. Duties may include serving customers, operating checkouts, replenishing shelves, handling deliveries, maintaining high standards of cleanliness and supporting colleagues across different areas. The role generally requires a friendly, reliable and flexible approach, with good communication skills and the ability to work efficiently in a busy environment. Previous retail experience is helpful but not always essential, as training is provided. Candidates should be comfortable working varied shifts, including evenings, weekends and peak seasonal dates, and be able to follow company procedures while delivering helpful customer service.
