- Support the team with stock management, seasonal promotions and in‑store campaigns.
- Maintain a clean, safe, organised and welcoming store environment.
- Work collaboratively with colleagues to ensure the store operates efficiently.
- Consistently provide friendly, helpful and professional customer service.
