As a result, you will be able to schedule your shifts so that 1 in 6 Saturdays are worked. Your rotas will be available in advance so that you may make plans.
With monthly and quarterly bonuses offered based on your performance and assisting us in providing the greatest levels of customer satisfaction, you can earn additional money in addition to your income. On average, you can anticipate earning an additional £3,000 annually, with a possible maximum of £,300.
