This role supports the presentation and availability of merchandise in a retail environment. Typical responsibilities include replenishing shelves, organising stock, setting displays, checking pricing and promotions, maintaining visual standards, and helping customers locate products. Applicants are generally expected to have good communication skills, a reliable and positive attitude, strong attention to detail, and the ability to work efficiently in a busy team. Retail or merchandising experience is useful but may not be essential. Flexibility to work weekends, public holidays, early mornings, or evenings may be required. Candidates should be physically able to stand for extended periods and safely lift or move stock. A customer-focused approach and willingness to follow workplace health, safety, and operational procedures are important.
