Your work will provide meaningful contribution in the achievement to the day-to-day coaching of teams to drive business performance outcomes. Creating memorable experiences for our customers is something you focus on every day.

Who we're looking for:

Our ideal candidate will have previous retail leadership experience, leading a department or similar, an individual with a strong passion for customer service and merchandising standards.

This role is results focussed, therefore the ability to achieve results by working closely with your team is a must and you are approachable and confident when interacting with team and customers.

You’ll need:

  • Previous experience supervising a team in a fast-paced environment

  • Proven ability to coach and develop others, providing feedback and getting the best out of a team

  • Ability to be on your feet assisting with customers across a wide range of retail hours

  • Hold an open, honest, and respectful communication style

Interested to apply?

As part of the recruitment process, you will be required to complete an online chat interview. This will take you just 20 minutes and will need to be completed within 24 hours of submitting your application. Once you've completed it, you’ll receive a personality profile which will tell you a little bit more about yourself.

If successful, you will then be invited to complete an online video interview by email. Don’t worry, it’s only 4 questions and should take you about 15 minutes to complete.

Bunnings strives to ensure everyone is treated fairly and our team are committed to supporting you at any stage of your recruitment journey. Be sure to let us know if you require an adjustment and we can provide the most appropriate support for you. Contact us at jobs@bunnings.com.au and a member of the team will be in touch.
