Short-term Temporary Team Member - Hayes (N121102)
Summer Retail Assistant (5.50hrs PW) – 5 Days a Week (Fridays: 12:00–18:00)
Join our store teams this summer and help deliver an incredible customer experience. Contracts range from a few days to 12 weeks, tailored to store needs—ideal for flexible, short-term work.
About the Role
Life at NEXT is energetic and supportive. This role gives you the chance to learn, grow, and develop in a collaborative, fast-paced environment.
Note: Availability for the Summer Sale weekend (Friday 3rd & Saturday 4th July) may be required, depending on your start date.
What You’ll Be Doing
As part of our in-store team, you’ll work on the sales floor, in the stockroom, or across both areas, ensuring the store runs smoothly.
Sales Floor Responsibilities:
- Engage customers with fast, friendly service to help them find products.
- Maintain a well-stocked, organised, and visually appealing shop floor.
- Keep the area clean, tidy, and inviting.
Stockroom Responsibilities:
- Efficiently process deliveries and stock replenishment to support the sales floor.
- Pick, pack, and transfer stock to meet customer needs and ensure accurate processing.
- Keep back-of-house areas clean, safe, and organised.
Flexibility Tip: You may support both areas as needed.
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.
