We will be listing thousands of 2011 christmas jobs on this category. Most xmas job vacancies being offered by high street companies. A high street job can be tough;

Christmas jobs are not always easy to come by, but if you start your search early, and consider all elements of the retail industry then you are certain to find a job which you can not only enjoy, but might also lead on to a full time permanent position.

The retail industry is clearly the busiest during the Christmas period, which lasts from October through to mid January, as Britain goes into a spending spree.  The first few months require additional employees to deal with the preparation and the slow increase in sales which are predicted.  December usually sees the busiest period as customers stock up on gifts for their loved ones and food for Christmas Day, and the period just after Christmas requires additional employees during the January sales.                   

All sorts of businesses require temporary Christmas staff to deal with their bulge in business during the Winter season.  This includes the high street favourites such as Wilkinsons and Boots stores, as well as online stores which have seen a steady growth in business, and are taking much of the Christmas sales so also need to be prepared to offer temporary Xmas jobs to deal with an increase in their business.

It’s also well known that temporary roles can assist with finding a permanent position, whether you may be taken on by the employer that provided you with the Christmas job, or the experience leads to a better chance of success in your next role.  If nothing else the additional cash at this expensive time of year is well received!

Tesco Christmas jobs are some of the most common roles in number as the company offer both gifts and food products and therefore anticipate a significant increase in sales during the Christmas months.  Tesco Chirstmas jobs are usually advertised in store early in September so that they can prgress the recruitment and selection process and provide training well before the store becomes busy.  Tesco Christmas jobs often also lead to permanent Tesco jobs for individuals who prove themselves hardworking and customer focused.

There are also many Asda Christmas job vacancies which are all listed on the Asda website.  These usually appear on the website during September and October at which time Asda notice a large increase in their clothing lines, toys and accessories, and shortly after a significant increase in the food sales.  Asda Christmas jobs are usually high pressure as the store is busy and as it draws closer to the big day, customers become more frantic to find what they need.

WHSmiths Christmas jobs are available every year with thousands of stores across the UK.  Vacancies are usually advertised on their website and in store from October.  Even if you have no experience in the retail industry, companies including WHSmiths are crying out for employees at this busy time of year, and their recruitment and selection process looks for the potential to provide great customer service, not necessarily demanding experience. 

When most of us think of buying Christmas gifts, we think of Argos, and Argos are certainly keen to provide the best customer service to maintain their high ranking in the retail industry.  Argos Christmas job vacancies are mostly in store providing hands-on service to provide customers with their purchases.  There are also additional temporary staff in the Argos Distribution Centres where additional deliveries are required to serve the individual stores.  To view the current Argos Christmas jobs available, visit the Argos careers website.

And how can we forget the company which employs some of the largest numbers of temporary Christmas employees – the Royal Mail.  Christmas post jobs are advertised on the Royal Mail website, and could be a first step into a great career in a large company.  With so many online stores relying on the Royal Mail postal service to deliver their products to waiting customers on time, this Christmas Royal Mail jobs are likely to continue increasing.
