Part time Jobs in London

It can seem tricky to get a job that fits in with your life commitments. We know that 9 to 5 from Monday to Friday will not suit everyone. In fact, statistics show that the number of employees working more than 45 hours a week is in steady decline. It is common for people to want to work hours which fit around personal factors including childcare.


If you’re seeking a part time job in London what are some common sectors to find flexible hours and how can LondonAreaJobs help you find a part time job in London?


Common Part Time Jobs in London


Part time jobs in London are available in all sectors but experience has shown that certain sectors frequently have a larger number of flexible openings than others, especially when you require a part time job with lesser experience required. Here are some sectors that we recommend you make your first port of call:


Customer Services


It is not uncommon for employees to want flexible customer service workers. One specific area often seeking to employ part time staff is telesales so if you possess a good telephone manner, are good with people or don’t mind cold calling then you may be able to find your perfect part time job in London in our Customer Services and Telesales sector.


Administration


Smaller companies in particular frequently require a part time administrator to be responsible for their administration. More substantial companies might also need a part time administrator to job share. This could involve working 2 or 3 complete days a week or a number of hours each day. So if you are organised with good computer literacy you may want to consider a part time administration job in London.


Retail


Shops and supermarkets commonly have a range of flexible part time jobs available. As they are largely open longer than ‘9 to 5’ and on Saturday you will find hours that will fit around your commitments. So if you have excellent customer service skills and like working with the public then make sure check our Retail sector for the most recent jobs.


Public Sector


Don’t forget to look at London Borough Councils as they commonly have flexible part time jobs in a large varied array of areas.
