Retail Assistant - Woolooware

About ALDI

ALDI brings a long-standing retail tradition that began in 1913 and has grown into a major supermarket presence in Australia since entering the market in 2001. Today, the business operates close to 600 stores and 8 distribution centres across 5 states. The company is known for a straightforward approach, offering quality products at low prices while aiming to create value for customers, communities, farmers, suppliers, and employees.

This role is based in ALDI’s Woolooware store, where you’ll join a team-focused environment with variety in day-to-day store work. The store operates seven days a week, including weekends and public holidays, so flexibility is important.

Role overview

ALDI is hiring a Store Assistant for its retail team. Prior retail experience is not required. The ideal candidate is someone with a positive mindset, strong work habits, and a willingness to pick up new skills. In this role, you will help keep the store running smoothly while working across different parts of the store rather than staying in a single area.

What you’ll do

• Assist customers at the checkout and provide friendly, efficient service.
• Keep merchandise replenished so shoppers can easily find the products they want.
• Manage stock correctly by checking dates, pricing, and product placement.
• Set up attractive displays for ALDI special buys.
• Maintain a clean, organised, and presentable store environment.

Additional information

The position offers an hourly rate of $31.27 plus applicable shift allowances. The average working pattern is 15 hours per week. This is a permanent part-time opportunity, so employees receive paid leave, parental leave, and sick leave rather than casual arrangements.

ALDI highlights strong internal growth, with more than 80% of store management positions filled from within the company. The role includes access to extensive training and career development opportunities, plus the benefit of working in small, supportive teams. Employees can also access the MyALDI Wellbeing program, discounted Fitness Passport membership, discounted health insurance, a confidential Employee Assistance Program for staff and their families, and free physiotherapy for non-work-related issues.

The company also provides support during major life events through benefits such as paid parental leave, superannuation during parental leave, up to 5 days of paid compassionate leave, natural disaster leave, and emergency services leave. ALDI states that it values diversity and welcomes applicants from all backgrounds, experiences, abilities, and identities.

No retail experience is necessary for this role, making it a strong entry point for someone looking to begin a career in retail with a well-established employer.
