Cleaning and Trolley Collection
Role summary
Written by MyIslandJob from the job title and employer. See the employer's page for the full description.
This role supports the smooth day-to-day operation of a Woolworths supermarket by cleaning customer and staff areas, collecting and returning shopping trolleys, managing waste safely, and helping maintain a clean, welcoming store environment. Applicants should be reliable, physically fit enough to walk, push and move trolleys, and comfortable working independently and as part of a team. Attention to safety, good time management, a positive attitude and willingness to work early mornings, evenings, weekends or public holidays are expected. Customer service skills are valuable, as the role involves regular interaction with shoppers and other team members.
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.
