Role summary
Written by MyIslandJob from the job title and employer. See the employer's page for the full description.
The Cleaning and Trolley Collection Team Member helps maintain a clean, safe and welcoming Woolworths store. Responsibilities typically include cleaning floors, entrances, bathrooms and service areas, collecting and returning shopping trolleys, managing waste, and responding to spills or hazards. Candidates should be physically fit, comfortable working outdoors and indoors, able to stand and move for extended periods, and willing to work early mornings, evenings, weekends or public holidays. Reliability, attention to detail, safe work practices and a friendly attitude are important. Previous cleaning or retail experience may be helpful but is not always essential, as training is generally provided.
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.
