Store Apprentice in Newbury
20 hours per week
Please note we cannot hire candidates for this role who are already studying.
We are looking for candidates who live locally and can easily commute to our store.
Our stores are open from 7 AM to 8 PM, so you must be able to manage early starts and late finishes.
At Toolstation, we're not just hiring for today - we're investing in your future and our own. Many of our managers began their journey on the shop floor and through dedication and the support of our award-winning apprenticeship programmes, they now lead their own stores or oversee significant operations.
This is your chance to build a successful career with one of the UK's fastest-growing retailers. As a Store Apprentice, you'll earn while you learn, gaining hands-on experience in key areas such as customer service, product knowledge, merchandising, business operations, and safety procedures.
- Engage with customers: Understand their needs and provide excellent service through genuine conversations.
- Get involved in store operations: Handle deliveries, stock shelves, and assist with warehouse tasks - be prepared to roll up your sleeves! There's a real family feel here and we all pitch in as part of a close-knit team. And since there's always loads of support from those around you, you'll never feel like you're struggling.
- Keep things running smoothly: Maintain a clean and well-organised store, ensuring everything is ready for our customers and safe for our colleagues.
- Learn while working: Set aside time each week to complete coursework, supported by your Store Manager and a dedicated apprenticeship coach.
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.
