It can seem hard to find a job that fits in with your life commitments. We know that 9 to 5 from Monday to Friday does not suit everyone. In fact, statistics show that the number of employees working in excess of 45 hours a week is in decline. It is common for people to need hours which fit around personal factors including childcare.
If you’re hunting for a part time job in Oxford what are some common sectors to find flexible work and how can AllOxfordJobs aid you in finding a part time job in Oxford?
Part time jobs in Oxford are available in all sectors but experience has shown that certain sectors often display a greater number of flexible vacancies than others, especially when you want a part time job with lesser experience required. Here are some sectors that we recommend that you might want to look at:
It is not uncommon for businesses to require flexible customer service workers. One especial area often seeking to employ part time staff is telesales so if you have a fantastic telephone manner, are good with people or are happy to do cold calling then you might be able to find your perfect part time job in Oxford in our Customer Services and Telesales sector.
Small companies in particular often need a part time administrator to be responsible for their administration. More substantial companies may also need a part time administrator to job share. This could involve working 2 or 3 full days a week or several hours each day. So if you are organised with decent computer skills you might want to think about a part time administration job in Oxford.
Shops and supermarkets frequently have a range of flexible part time jobs available. As they are commonly open longer than ‘9 to 5’ and on Saturday you might find hours that will fit with your commitments. So if you have great customer service abilities and like dealing with the public then make sure check our Retail sector for the latest jobs.
Don’t forget to look at Oxford Borough Council / Oxfordshire County Council as they commonly have flexible part time jobs in a very varied array of areas.
