Christmas Temp Application Form

My Argos is a great place to spend Christmas
Join our team and help to deliver unforgettable customer service this Christmas!

Join us and we’ll give you a brilliant 10% discount from day one as well as a great working environment and loads of training and opportunities. In fact, some of our previous
Christmas temps have enjoyed it so much they’ve stayed for good and gone on to be managers. We also offer flexible hours to suit your lifestyle and competitive hourly rates of pay.

As the UK’s leading non-food retailer, the run-up to Christmas is by far our busiest time, so we need enthusiastic, flexible people who will keep our customers happy by delivering exceptional service.

We’ve got stores across the country, so you’re bound to find the perfect place for you.

About Argos
We have over 700 stores, which means there’s an Argos within 10 miles of 95% of the UK population. We also have an increasing presence in the Republic of Ireland.
We’ve always been dedicated to making sure our customers can choose from the best range of goods at the most competitive prices. Not to mention the most convenient shopping experiences. So we’ve continually evolved to improve and widen the range of services we offer.
Whatever we do, we’re only as good as our people. They’re the real secret of our success. The ones who deliver exceptional customer service are the ones that build strong rapports with customers, enabling them to understand fully what the customer wants and highlight the benefits and features of our fantastic range of products. Service excellence like this makes
Argos more than just a shop and keeps our customers coming back for more, time and time again.

Temporary Jobs for Christmas
Across our business we recruit thousands of temps at
Christmas. All that extra energy really creates a great buzz within our stores.

When you join our team we want you to share in the rewards, therefore we offer:

• Competitive pay
• Flexible hours to suit your lifestyle
– if you can be flexible too
• Comprehensive training
