  • Help with setup on 1-2 December, plus daily opening, closing and keeping the stand ready for customers
  • Communicate clearly with the team when stock is running low or support is needed

Who we’re looking for

Previous retail experience and basic jewelry-making skills are required. You do not need to be a professional jewelry maker, but you should already know how to attach charms to necklace, earring or bracelet bases neatly and securely using basic tools.

  • Calm, efficient and friendly in a busy retail environment
  • Confident approaching customers and contributing to sales
  • Accurate when handling payments, stock and jewelry components
  • Reliable, punctual and able to take initiative
  • Comfortable switching between customer service, jewelry assembly and practical tasks

  • Able to work shifts from 12:00-21:00, with flexibility when shift times vary

Working days and hours

This is seasonal work from 1-24 December 2026, including stand setup on 1 and 2 December. We are looking for someone who can work 4–5 days per week, with availability on Saturdays and Sundays required. Working days and exact shift times will be agreed in advance.

Please be available for shifts between 12:00 and 21:00. Shift times may vary depending on the day and operational needs.

On 24 December, we hope to finish before 17:00. This is our intended finishing time rather than a guarantee; the final schedule will be communicated in advance.

This vacancy is specifically for temporary seasonal support at the Royal Christmas Fair.

Please submit your application by 13 November 2026.
