Smile programme

Smile Scheme

We really appreciate people who put the extra effort in. And our 'Smile' programme rewards Customer Service Assistants who do just that. They can earn Smile Points by completing activities linked to product launches and promotions. But importantly, managers can also give them points for being especially helpful, for example covering a shift at short notice. They can then cash Smile Points for vouchers to use at supermarkets and other retailers.

 

What's on offer?

Aside from working with colleagues who are more like friends? And the satisfaction of giving customers products they really need? Well, we offer everything you'd expect from a business that's part of the world's fourth-largest company – and far too many to list in this little area. Have a look at our benefits box to see just how rewarding a career with BP Retail can be.
