Proactive Services Team Lead (Cleaning and Trolley Collection)
Here at Woolies, we have a team called Proactive Services that ensures trolleys are available to use and that our stores are in pristine condition - this enables our Customers (and your colleagues) to experience an environment that is hygienically clean to work and shop in. You’ll work side-by-side with your team whilst bringing a little good to everyone, every day.

Reporting into the Facilities Manager , you’ll lead a group of Team Members (between 10-40 depending on store size) to deliver our Trolley Collection and cleaning services to a set store.
