Nightfill Team Member
Role summary
Written by MyIslandJob from the job title and employer. See the employer's page for the full description.
The Nightfill Team Member replenishes supermarket shelves during evening or overnight shifts, checks product presentation, rotates stock, maintains accurate pricing and helps keep the store clean, safe and organised. Applicants generally need a reliable work ethic, good attention to detail, physical fitness for lifting and moving cartons, and the ability to work efficiently in a busy retail environment. Previous retail experience is helpful but often not essential, as training is provided. Woolworths expects candidates to be punctual, safety-conscious, customer-focused and comfortable working independently or as part of a team. Availability for nights, weekends and public holidays may be required.
Can I work in Australia?
Never pay anyone for a visa or a job offer. A real employer pays the permit costs and never asks you for money.
How it works
How it works: Sales assistants and shop-floor staff are not on the Core Skills list; only retail managers and buyers can be sponsored, at AUD 79,423+; a working holiday visa is the usual route for shop work.
Before you apply: Shop-floor jobs need no professional licence. Pharmacists do: they must register with the local regulator, and one qualified abroad often has to pass local exams first. Selling alcohol can need a short course and certificate, for example in Australia.
Watch for: Shop jobs go to people with work rights, including working holiday visa holders (6 months with one employer); there is no sponsorship route for sales assistants.
