From one tiny Cincinnati grocery store more than a century ago, we've grown into what today is the nation's largest grocer with nearly 2,800 stores in 35 states operating under 28 different names. As America's grocer, we take pride in bringing diverse teams with a passion for food and people together with one common purpose: To Feed the Human Spirit. With a history of innovation, we work tirelessly to create amazing experiences for our customers, communities, and each other, with food at the heart of it all.
Here, people matter. That's why we strive to provide the ingredients you need to create your own recipe for success at work and in life. We help feed your future by providing the value and care you need to grow. If you're caring, purpose-driven and hungry to learn, your potential is unlimited.
In this position, you will be responsible for making daily assessments of the store's ability to meet and exceed customer expectations for ease of shopping, variety, freshness, cleanliness, food safety, and regulatory compliance. You will manage the overall day-to-day operations of the store, including training and developing effective store associates to achieve desired sales and profit results.
You will coach and develop all store associates through both formal and informal interactions, leading teams in the planning, implementation, and execution of merchandising and operational initiatives to ensure the store is customer-ready every day. Your role involves working with store assistant store leaders, department leaders, and associates to identify opportunities, develop timely solutions, and create action plans. You will drive cost-effective sales, reduce shrink, and improve each store department's contribution while discussing financial performance and safety goals with your team.
Demonstrating the company's core values of respect, honesty, integrity, diversity, inclusion, and safety is essential. You will promote and support strong relationships with local community organizations and build proactive relationships with union officials where applicable.
