Being a large retail and grocery chain, Tesco offers a variety of job opportunities across different roles and locations, each playing a crucial part in the company’s operations, whether in-store, in warehouses, or in office environments.

In March, Tesco announced it would increase store workers’ pay by 9.1% in a roughly £300 million investment.

The grocery giant, which employs more than 330,000 people across the UK, raised the basic hourly rate for store workers from £11.02 per hour to £12.02.

It also increased the pay of workers within the M25 to £13.15 per hour, from a current rate of £11.95 for those in inner London and £11.75 for those in outer London.

The pay deal announcement, which came after an agreement with the Usdaw trade union, also saw the business increase its paternity level to six weeks fully paid and raise maximum sick pay entitlement to 18 weeks.

Employees generally embraced the announcements, though there was some criticism over the changes not being implemented until 28 April, nearly a month after the legal minimum wage increased for those aged 21 and over.
