Why Us?
Christmas at The Entertainer, Brighton Churchill Square is like no other retailer – we’re selling toys, at Christmas! With a passion for toys, customer service and an enthusiastic personality, your job will be to create memories for everyone who visits our store. We have a contract to suit everyone who is looking to earn some extra money in the run up to Christmas, from helping behind the scenes in ‘Santa’s Workshop’, to working at the till – we have lots to keep you busy!

What our colleagues say
“Christmas working in The Entertainer is so fast paced – I think I did more than 10,000 steps in my first day! If I wasn’t serving customers at the till, I was putting away stock in the warehouse, dealing with customer orders or talking to the excited children on the shop floor, helping them make their Christmas lists – with help from their family! I was always on the go, it wouldn’t feel like I was there long, before it was time to go home again! If you love talking to people and are a team player, then this is the job for you.”
