THE ROLE
Imagine the excitement and ability to show off your incredible skills in a deployed environment (overseas) for six months working in a retail store for the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) and partner nations from across the world!

As a deployed Retail Attendant, you are not just providing retail services, but enhancing the morale and welfare of all the troops deployed.

The Retail Attendant is part of an enthusiastic team of adventurous individuals who enjoys meaningful employment and contributing in a team-based environment. Excited by the opportunity to deploy as a civilian among CAF personnel abroad, you are a team player with a positive attitude in a fast‑paced setting. You are able to adapt to new challenges in an ever‑changing dynamic environment.

The Retail Attendant provides exceptional customer service in a retail store, to the CAF and partner nations. You prepare and serve Tim Hortons beverages, handle cash and card transactions, and interact with customers. You seek innovative ways to organize store displays, solicit feedback from customers, and stock the store shelves.

The Retail Attendant position is physically demanding due to the constant restocking of inventory, standing all day, and walking back and forth to storage areas.

The Retail Attendant plays an important role in enhancing the morale of CAF and partner nations by assisting with recreational activities and events. Keeping the military energized ensures they are mentally and physically ready to sustain the difficulties of military operations, and live healthy balanced lives.

This is an exciting and rewarding opportunity that does not come along often!
