Evening Jobs in the UK

Plenty of industries need people in the evening. Restaurants, bars, takeaways and hotels are busiest at night. Supermarkets and warehouses run evening and night shifts to restock shelves and pick online orders. Office cleaning is often done after staff have gone home. Care providers need evening carers to help people with dinner and bedtime routines, and contact centres extend their opening hours into the evening. Delivery drivers are in high demand for evening food and parcel deliveries.

The jobs on this page mention evening, twilight or night work in their title. Twilight shifts usually run from late afternoon until around 10pm, while night shifts can continue into the early hours. Some roles are just a few evenings a week, and others are full time night work. Check the advert for shift times and how many evenings you are expected to cover.

If you work at night regularly, the law gives you extra protection, including limits on average night working hours and the right to a free health assessment. Your pay must be at least the National Minimum Wage or National Living Wage for your age, and some employers pay a higher rate for night shifts.

Think about how you will get home after a late shift, especially if you rely on public transport. Some employers in out-of-town locations provide transport or car parking, and the advert usually mentions this. It is also worth checking whether shift times are fixed or change each week, so you can plan around your other commitments.
