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 involves keeping the store and surrounding areas clean, collecting and returning shopping trolleys, managing waste, and helping maintain a safe and welcoming environment for customers and team members. Applicants should be physically fit, reliable, safety-conscious, and comfortable working indoors and outdoors in varying weather conditions. The role may involve standing, walking, lifting, pushing trolleys, and using cleaning equipment.

Flexible availability, including early mornings, evenings, weekends, and public holidays, is commonly required. Previous cleaning or retail experience is helpful but may not be essential.
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.
