The Hastings Co-operative Ltd is currently seeking a Deli Manager for our Wauchope IGA. The Deli Manager is a key member of the supermarket leadership team and is responsible for coaching the Deli team to deliver an exceptional store experience for our customers and members.
Hastings Co-op is a community-owned co-operative with businesses across the Hastings, employing more than 300 locals.
Our businesses include fuel, supermarkets, liquor stores, department store and car hire.
We are an integral part of our local community and create a sense of belonging where: our employees and members are family, our customers are friends and our suppliers are our partners. They are at the heart of everything we do - from rewarding members who are part of the Co-op family and giving back to local groups and charities, to being one of the largest employers of youth and showcasing local producers.
By turnover we are one of the largest consumer/retail co-operatives in Australia, and one of the longest serving independent co-ops in Australia, which is a testament to the local dairy farmers who saw the benefit of joining forces back in 1916.
This is a full-time position, working to a roster arrangement which includes morning, evening and weekend shifts.
This is a great opportunity to continue to develop your people management skills and to work with a business which has community at its heart.
