Working Hours/ Shift Patterns: The average working hours are 37.5 per week, following a 4 -week shift rotation. Shifts are scheduled between 8am to 8:30pm from Monday to Friday, and 9am to 5:30pm on weekends. You will work 2 weekends out of every 4 weeks.
Training: The core training lasts for the first 4 weeks and would require hybrid training in the office and training remotely from home. You'll continue hybrid working onsite through to week 8 to reinforce your learning and build confidence. After this period, you'll need approval from a trainer or team leader before transitioning to hybrid working of one day a week in the office and the rest working remotely from home.
Our approach to Hybrid Working: With hybrid working, you have more flexibility, as you usually only have to visit our office once a week and work remotely for the rest of the time. You can always opt to work from the office more frequently if that suits you better. When we organise training and events you may be required to attend in person for the duration.
Salary: The starting salary is £30,000 plus a fantastic benefit package. There will be opportunities for further salary progression to £33,000, which can be achieved with the right focus on personal development.
Location: Our fantastic Leicester office, which is in the city centre and only a short walk from the train station.

Benefits you’ll receive:
As a Disability Confident employer, we’re committed to ensuring our recruitment processes are fully inclusive – what this means to you is if you’re applying for a job with us, you’ll have fair access to support and adjustments throughout your recruitment journey. For this position, we’re regrettably unable to accept applications through the Disability Confident Scheme (DCS) due to the extremely high volumes of applications we receive. However, what we put in place for these positions instead in order to remove barriers is an opportunity for all candidates to complete first stage assessments, in the form of some online exercises, which we can also provide adjustments for on a case-by-case basis. For more information on the DCS, please visit our inclusive business page on our careers site.
If you believe you require any reasonable adjustments to complete the online assessment and/or interview process due to disabilities or health conditions, please do contact the recruitment team at: recruitmentteam@hastingsdirect.com prior to completing your application.
