Work Life Balance at Tesco

The great news is, we're a big business with diverse shift patterns and many business areas which means that we can find something that works for you. Opportunities don’t need to be structured – part-time, job-shares, there’s no limit. It really can give you the best of both worlds – a career and family life. Depending on where you work, flexible working can include:

• Part-time working
• Having a fixed shift pattern
• Working on a set number of days a week
• Job sharing with a colleague
• Working from home/remotely as appropriate

We've also partnered with Timewise and signed up to the Retail Pioneers Programme which aims to help retailers maximise the benefits of workplace flexibility.

With the recent development of our office campus in Welwyn Garden City, we've introduced ‘smarter working’ so colleagues can shape their day around their role, the team and the business needs. Whether it means starting work at 8am and finishing at 4pm, working from home or another arrangement agreed with their manager. 

Environment means a lot in our offices, so we champion the flexible approach with hot desking, ample meeting rooms and informal meeting/breakout spaces. We also have cool outdoor spaces, with ping pong tables and table football. Plus, you'll get a laptop so you can make the most of our flexible working policy. 

A happy work environment means happy colleagues and happy customers
