Sainsbury’s Announces 22,000 Seasonal Roles For Christmas Plus Employee Perks

Hey Deal Hunters,

If you're on the lookout for some extra cash this festive season, Sainsbury's might just be your ticket. They've gone all out this year, announcing 22,000 seasonal roles across the nation. Yep, you read that right.

Eloise Hill at Retail Gazette reported that not only is Sainsbury's rolling out these jobs, but 2,000 of them will also be at Argos. And here's a golden nugget - they're starting the hiring process way earlier than usual. So if you're keen, now's the time to hop on board.

But here's where it gets even juicier for all of you savvy savers: Sainsbury’s is upping its game by boosting the colleague discount from the usual 10% to a tempting 15% every Friday and Saturday. Plus, there's a 15% off at Argos on every payday Friday. But hold on, it gets even better! If you’re a temporary staff member, after just four weeks, you can grab a second discount card for a mate or family member at your address. And did I mention the free food during shifts?

The competition's heating up too. Morrisons is hunting for 3,500 workers, and Aldi's on the prowl for an extra 3,000 staff members for the Christmas rush.

Tom Church, Co-Founder of shopping community LatestDeals.co.uk, remarked, “This festive hiring surge, especially with the added perks, is a real opportunity for those looking to pocket extra cash during the holidays. And for deal hunters, those discounts are pretty enticing.”

Stay savvy, Deal Hunters, and keep those eyes peeled for more bargains and opportunities!
