Section Leader Southampton, England
Job description
To be employed in this role you must be over the age of 18.
Are you looking for your next challenge? Do you enjoy leading a team to deliver the highest standards for customers?
What's in it for you?
Alongside a competitive salary, we offer a great range of other benefits too. You'll receive a discount card for yourself and a second card for your nominated user, giving you 10% off your shopping and you'll also receive a company pension. On the ‘Our Asda' benefits site, you will have access to a wide range of discounts across various activities and services, anything from airport parking to theme parks and pet insurance to car tyres – whatever you're into there's something to suit everyone!
About the Role
Our operation runs 24 hours per day, 7 days per week, with that brings a wide variety of shift patterns – if you're looking for flexible working to fit around your lifestyle, then look no further! We'll work with you on your shifts, but weekend working is a requirement of the role and we may need to be flexible with your work pattern.
There's a role for everyone in retail - including leadership. As a Section Leader, you'll be the first point of contact for your team. You'll assist with training colleagues and keeping them fully informed by communicating messages in team ‘huddles'. You'll make sure colleagues are available to maintain product availability and meet the expectations of our customers through careful planning of overtime and holidays, ensuring colleagues are in the right place at the right time.
We'll help you to train in different areas and continually develop your skills, so if you're looking for a chance to develop in retail, this could be the role for you!
As a Twilight Section Leader you will be responsible for leading a team of colleagues to complete our delivery.
Your working shifts will be 5 days a week over a 3 week rolling rota inclusive of a weekend in, weekend off and a Saturday in. Your working hours could be 16:00 - 01:00 or 16:00 - 0300. On certain days you will also be the duty leader of the shop and on completion of your shift will be handing over to the next duty leader.
About You
You'll be naturally friendly and want to get stuck in, working with your team to deliver great results. You'll have an enthusiastic approach to learning new skills across different departments, and be a strong coach, mentor and motivator for your team. You'll be a role model to the colleagues around you, ensuring customers have a great shopping experience.
