At Lidl, everyone contributes something different—but we’re also a team united by collaboration, determination, and a commitment to supporting one another.
About the Role
As a Lidl Customer Assistant, no two shifts are ever repetitive. Between restocking shelves, managing tills, maintaining cleanliness, and assisting customers, you’ll keep your store dynamic and successful. By going the extra mile to create a welcoming, organised environment, you’ll play a key role in delivering exceptional service to every guest.
This role offers competitive pay, including £2.00 extra per hour for bank holidays and £3.50 per hour for night work. You’ll also benefit from a wide range of support, from career progression opportunities to personal development training—helping you grow from a Customer Assistant into roles such as a Freshness, Non-Food, or Bakery Specialist.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
