Store Team Member

Job Description

A Store Team Member supports the daily operation of a Woolworths supermarket by serving customers, replenishing shelves, maintaining store presentation, handling stock, and following health and safety procedures. The role generally requires a friendly and reliable attitude, good communication skills, attention to detail, and the ability to work efficiently in a busy environment. Candidates should be comfortable standing for extended periods, lifting and moving stock, and working flexible shifts, including evenings, weekends, and public holidays. Previous retail experience is helpful but not always essential, as training is usually provided. A strong focus on customer service, teamwork, punctuality, and willingness to learn is expected.
