We employ a mix of full-time and part-time variable or fixed hours’ contracts and are, of course, an equal opportunities employer.
Perks? There are always perks! Whether that is the staff discount we give, the special offers or just the manager’s good chat!
Even if we don’t have any current vacancies listed its always good just to drop us a line and a copy of your CV to your local shop.
