Somerfield

First things first. Somerfield is fast-paced, hard-working, no fuss. We’re tough enough to challenge and be challenged. So you’ll need to understand your customers, value your colleagues, drive your business, respond positively to change and take responsibility for your own development. A 2:2 degree in any discipline (and minimum Grade C at English and Maths GCSE or equivalent) is essential. Yet what you really need to consider is if you have all the qualities we need, with a mind to solve problems, the ability to influence others, the resilience to stay the course and, of course, the drive and ambition to achieve your goals. As a business we ask for total focus from our people - every day. It’s a winning mentality and we’re not ashamed to be proud and passionate about what we do. Indeed, it’s that commitment that makes us such a success in every community - and those high standards that have made us such a success with our customers.

One last thought. Mobility (and a full UK/European driving licence) will be important if you really want to fulfil your potential with us. We have opportunities in four zones nationwide (as shown on the map) and will do our best to place you locally, though a degree of flexibility may be required on your part.
