Duty Manager

Are you looking for a new challenge?

Are you keen to be part of a dynamic, forward thinking and innovative team?

Are you good at helping to make things better: for you, the customer, the store and the community?

Then you could be our new Duty Manager!

Our Duty Managers, in the absence of Department Managers and other members of the Management Team help us to make sure that we always provide a fresh and great shopping experience for all customers and help us keep the store running smoothly. Even more than that, our Duty Managers work with the team to ensure that we always have a good-looking store, help us keep it secure, our service on point and our team working well.

Why Join Us?

New World Inglewood is growing. It’s a popular community-focused store, with the iconic Mount Taranaki literally a backdrop to our town and store. The city and attractions of New Plymouth are only 15 minutes away.

We are people focused - our team and our customers are important to us! We have a brilliant team here and we are proud of the many compliments and positive feedback from customers on the products we create, on how happy our team are and how wonderful the store is with our friendly team.

Key Responsibilities:

To be successful in this role, you will need:

• Strong communication skills (both written and verbal)

• Have an understanding of what Food Safety in a commercial environment is and what Health and Safety means in a Supermarket.
• A current Duty Managers Certificate (LCQ) is desired (will be essential after training is provided).
• You will have had previous experience in leading a team and supervising (but also, you know how to muck in to get the work done).

• You are physically fit - there is some lifting involved (15kg).

The successful applicant will be offered the following.
