Feel the excitement and share the buzz. Welcome to the world of 3 - a totally different kind of retailer offering a totally different kind of retail career.
Since we launched the UK's first 3G network, we've gone from strength to strength. We were the first to introduce mobile broadband, and now we're building the UK's best high-speed broadband network. We've also left the competition trailing in our wake by making free internet calling with Skype mobile and launching our own dedicated 3 Skypephone. Not that we're about toys for the boys - our products have grabbed the imagination of everyone and we're now reaching a whopping 10 million customers in eight countries.
Retail revolution
And because we offer the kind of stuff people put at the top of their wish list, we've taken the UK's high streets and shopping centres by storm. In 2007 we moved into 150 new locations, bringing the total number of standalone 3Stores to 271. Incredibly, in one particular month we opened a new store on average every day, setting a record in the retail market that's unlikely to be beaten (except by us).
But we don't see ourselves as just another phone store. We're into giving our customers a fantastic and not-at-all-salesy experience that leaves them begging for more. So whether they want a 3 TV package with just the right balance of texts, voice and video minutes, or a simple but stylish pay-as-you-go handset, nothing is too much trouble for the bright-eyed and bushy-tailed men and women who are the face of 3.
Wow and be wowed
Not only do we have some great opportunities at our existing stores, we're planning to rollout 30 more stores in 2008, taking us past the 300 mark - so what better time to join the ranks as a Store Manager, Assistant Manager or Sales Associate. We're after people who can get to know our customers, understand their lifestyles and wow them with a passion for our unique products - and get their talented team mates to do the same.
But if you've got the customer service experience we need, and can hit your targets, there will be plenty to wow you. No-one has the Monday morning blues at 3 (or the blues any other day, for that matter). Our people love getting their hands on the latest technology, they love the fun and vibrant atmosphere in our stores and they love the rewards. With a fantastic bonus and flexi-pay, you won't have empty pockets, while everyone gets a free phone, calls and texts. Without wanting to bombard you with stats, in a recent survey 83% of our retail team said they were proud to work for 3 and 85% would speak highly of us as an employer to people outside the company. We're over the moon with such a response - as any business would be - and if you want to find out why our people are so enthusiastic, go to www.three.co.uk/careers
