Database assistant jobs

We are excited to be bringing the legendary Choose Love Shop back to London’s Regent Street this winter.
This is the ultimate charity store where customers can buy essential items for refugees like hot meals, winter
coats for children and sleeping bags. Instead of taking them home, each purchase buys an item for someone
who truly needs it. Customers can also buy Choose Love merch as well as fabulous fashion and beauty
donated by stylists, brands and celebrities. At the Choose Love shop the world is a better place with every
purchase. Last year we raised over $1.1 million for our life-saving work and this year’s

shop promises to be bigger and better than ever!

The Sales Assistant’s primary responsibilities are making all shoppers feel welcome in the store,
educating them about the shop's concept and all the items, and taking donations on card machines.
You’ll also inform visitors about Choose Love’s work so that they feel connected and informed, which
will help raise much-needed funds. You’ll also work in the merchandise department, support the
daily volunteer teams, and get involved in some in-store events.

Use of AI in Applications
We value the unique experience and perspective each candidate brings. While we understand that AI tools can be helpful in drafting applications, they can sometimes result in responses that feel generic or impersonal. This makes it harder for us to get a true sense of you.

To help your application stand out, we encourage you to write your responses in your own words. If you do use AI tools to support your writing, please treat the generated content as a starting point rather than a final answer. Make sure your application genuinely reflects your experience and voice.
