About the role

Working in the Merchandising department, you'll help support your Online Merchandising Planning Manager to ensure products are ranged and launch online at the right time.

We also recognise that life looks a little different for each of us. Some people are at the start of their careers, some want the freedom to do the things they love. Others are going through life-changing moments like becoming a carer, nearing retirement, adapting to parenthood, or something else. That’s why at Tesco, we always welcome a conversation about flexible working. So, talk to us throughout your application about how we can support.
