Grocery Assistant

Opening October 2025

We’re getting ready to open the doors to our brand-new PAK’nSAVE in Rolleston – and we’re on the lookout for reliable, hands-on Grocery Assistants to help bring our store to life!

This is a rare opportunity to be part of something special from day one – helping shape a store that’s proudly committed to becoming the best low-cost supermarket in New Zealand, serving one of the country’s fastest-growing communities with great value and great service.

How to Apply:

Click Apply, attach your CV, and tell us a bit about yourself – including your availability and shift preferences. We’ll begin shortlisting shortly and aim to hold interviews in September. Keep an eye on your junk/spam folder in case our emails land there.

About the role:

As a Grocery Assistant, you’ll help keep our shelves stocked, tidy, and looking sharp. You’ll be working across dry goods, chilled, or frozen departments – making sure products are rotated, displayed correctly, and easy for customers to find.

This is a physical, hands-on role that involves lifting, unpacking, and working at pace. You’ll be part of a team that keeps the store running smoothly behind the scenes.

These are full-time roles working 10-hour shifts across 4 days, with 3 days off each week. We’re hiring for two shift patterns:

• Morning Fill: 4.00am – 2.30pm
• Night Fill: 1.00pm – 11.30pm

All roles will include working either a Saturday or Sunday shift. We’ll confirm hours with successful applicants before offering a role.

About you:

You’ll be someone with a great attitude who’s keen to jump in and get the job done. Ideally, you’ll also:

• Show up on time and be someone we can count on
• Be happy to get stuck into whatever needs doing
• Have a reliable way to get to and from work
• Be great at working as part of a team
• Be honest, organised, and take pride in your work
• Always have safety top of mind

If you’ve worked in retail or a supermarket before, that’s a bonus – but don’t worry if you haven’t. We care more about attitude than experience.

Why join us?

• Help set up and grow a brand-new store from day one
• Be part of a team focused on doing things right – for customers, the wider community, and each other
• Join a trusted brand with the energy of a fresh new opening
• Work in a modern, purpose-built environment with room to grow
