Customer Team Member

As a Customer Team Member, you'll work as part of a friendly team in a fast-moving Co-op store, helping deliver essential services to your community every day. Depending on your store, this could involve working in our post office, bakery, or helping with online services by picking and packing orders for home delivery. Whatever the day brings, you'll play a key role in making life easier for our customers.

Why this job matters:
You'll help keep our shelves stocked and support sales, making sure customers can find what they need. You'll be a familiar face in the community, getting to know your customers and helping us stay connected with local and national charities. Plus, you'll promote Co-op membership, helping more customers enjoy the benefits of our unique business.

• Support the day-to-day running of the store by delivering friendly and thoughtful service, helping to put things right when needed
• Work with your team to keep the store running smoothly
• Work hands-on on the shop floor and tills, and contribute to daily operations to create a great shopping experience
• Help maintain store performance by keeping shelves stocked and checking prices, dates, and stock accuracy
• Make sure the store is safe and legal – keep the shelves stocked and make sure prices, dates, and temperatures are all as they should be

As a Customer Team Leader, you'll help maintain our high standards while supporting your store colleagues to be their best. You'll assist the Store Manager and make sure your store is always safe. You'll also take pride in keeping the store well-stocked and looking great, leading by example and doing the right thing. If you have a strong sense of community, commercial awareness, and leadership skills, our Store Manager opportunity might be what you're looking for.

As a Store Manager at Co-op, you'll lead your team and make sure everyone works together to deliver a great in-store experience for our customers. You'll lead a large team of Store Managers across around 20 stores. You'll inspire your team to deliver a great customer experience, drive sales, and contribute to their communities.
