The UK’s largest specialist wine retailer Majestic is kicking off the search for 150 new seasonal staff, as it ramps up plans for its “biggest-ever Christmas”.
The retailer said it was expanding its expert team with a “combination of permanent positions and temporary festive roles” across its estate of 216 shops, in a bid to “bolster [its] workforce ahead of the golden quarter and help it lay the foundations for future bricks-and-mortar growth”.
Positions available include new delivery drivers, sales assistants, assistant managers and trainee managers. All applicants will be put on “learning and development programmes to equip them with the skills and expertise required to become a store manager within 12 months”.
Among the permanent roles available are new roles at Majestic’s new store in Truro, Cornwall, its fifth store opening this year.
Majestic managing director Elizabeth Newman said: “We live for Christmas at Majestic – it’s our busiest time of year, but also our most exciting and most enjoyable. Our stores are always absolutely buzzing and our proposition really comes into its own, helping our customers discover new wines to taste with their friends and families over the festive period.
“If you love wine and want to join a passionate and fast-paced team, we could have the perfect role for you at Majestic. Our new colleagues will not only help us to deliver another Majestic Christmas for our retail and on-trade customers, but will set us up to drive further growth next year and beyond.”
