Job Description
The Role
We are looking for a friendly and reliable Retail Assistant to join our much-loved shop in Toowoomba.
This is a hands-on role where no two days are the same. Our Retail Assistants play an important role in supporting the day-to-day operations of the store, from assisting customers on the sales floor and providing friendly counter service, to processing purchases and helping with back-of-house tasks such as pricing and preparing stock for display.
You will contribute to creating a welcoming shopping experience for our customers while supporting the team to keep the store organised, well presented, and running smoothly.
If you enjoy working with people, have a positive attitude, and are keen to gain experience in retail, we’d love to hear from you.
This is a Permanent, Part-Time position (20 hours per week) based in Toowoomba.
Desired Skills and Experience
What you’ll bring:
Previous retail or customer service experience will be highly regarded, but not essential
A willingness to learn and a positive, can-do attitude
An eye for sustainable fashion and repurposing with purpose – ensuring our customers find their next hidden treasure
A passion for making a difference and supporting our companions to shop in a welcoming environment
A collaborative team member and an understanding that our people are our greatest asset
A promise to live by our values and lead with our mission at heart
Ready to apply? We can’t wait to hear from you.
You can submit your application via SEEK or directly on our careers page!
Having the right people in our team is important to us. Before joining our team, we’ll undertake pre-employment checks including references, a police check and proof of qualifications.
We are committed to meaningful equity and diversity in our workforce. Applications from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples is strongly encouraged. To be eligible for this position you must have an appropriate visa to work in Australia/New Zealand.
