    Co-op Food Team leader, March 2024

  • Best thing

    Lots of variety in tasks, headsets to talk to colleagues, pays well for young people. Lots of guidance and instructions to help you learn how to do something or if you want a refresh. Team is pretty easy going and you get to know colleagues well.

    Worst thing

    It's retail. Sometimes it's a bit stressful with customers, deliveries and being short staffed and struggling to get shifts covered.
