Customer Delivery Driver, Supermarket Assistant

This is a really important front line role. You represent us with every single customer you meet and their impression of Waitrose & Partners is down to you. So, as well as having a flexible approach and the ability to use your initiative to deal with unexpected situations, you should be passionate about providing the very highest levels of customer service., As Partners - members of the Partnership - it's our responsibility to ensure our success for the future. We proactively seek out opportunities to continuously improve the way we work, taking action to ensure the Partnership is efficient and we are all as productive as possible. It's an ethos each and every Partner works by and you'll carry into your own role too.

Due to the delivery/handling/selling of age restricted items, applicants must be 18 years or over to apply.

You'll be the friendly face of our business - the helpful driver who delivers the unique blend of Waitrose quality and outstanding service right to our customers' doors. When you're not out and about you'll be at the store, assisting with things like stock control and cashiering, which may involve lifting heavy products., You will need a full valid UK manual driving licence with no more than six points - and you should be 18 years old or over. Part of the application process will include a licence check and a security check to confirm your suitability for the role.

A good appreciation of health & safety is a must too, along with excellent driving skills - and we will ask you to take a driving assessment as part of your application., Previous experience in a driving role and a knowledge of chilled vehicles would both be welcomed.

At the John Lewis Partnership, we embrace our differences. We want you to be you. Because, well, we know you're at your best when you're free to be yourself.

Being a truly inclusive employer to us means creating an environment which celebrates your contribution, regardless of age, gender, race, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation, social background, religion or belief. It's why we've set our own aim to become the UK's most inclusive business - for our Partners (employees) and our customers.

We firmly believe that our future success lies in diversity of thought from all Partners and it's integral in our mission to build a happier world.

As a Partner you will enjoy our unique benefits package, including staff discount, subsidised food in Partner dining rooms, discounts in local restaurants, subsidised learning, access to exclusive Partnership hotels and so much more., We want all of our Partners to have a good work-life balance and we support flexible working. This might mean flexible or compressed hours, job sharing or shorter hour contracts, where it is possible to do so. Please discuss this further with the hiring manager during your interview.
