Job Description

A Store Team Member supports everyday supermarket operations, including serving customers, replenishing shelves, maintaining store presentation, handling stock, and following health, safety, and food-quality procedures. Applicants generally need a customer-focused attitude, reliability, clear communication skills, and the ability to work effectively in a busy team. Depending on the department, the role may involve standing for extended periods, lifting and moving products, and working flexible shifts across mornings, evenings, weekends, and public holidays.
