Grocery Shopper
I am looking to hire a grocery shopper for my personal chef business in Kanata. Your job will be to shop according to a list we will provide and then organize the groceries at our commercial kitchen in Kanata.
Shopping days are Tuesdays and Wednesdays after 3pm. You will be asked to cover a very occasional Sunday and Monday shop and you will have support if you need your shift covered, with advance notice.
The Tuesday shop will take 2-2.5 hours roughly and the Wednesday shop may be less than an hour however you will be paid for the full hour.
You will shop at Costco, Superstore in Kanata, Farm Boy, Metro, and sometimes a stop into T & T or LCBO. You will then go to the commercial kitchen on Schneider Rd. to drop off and organize the groceries.
• Having previous shopping experience is a huge asset.
• Learning our preferred brands, choosing beautiful produce and monitoring expiry dates is extremely important.
• Knowledge of the layout of these stores is an asset.
• Attention to detail is a must and if you love to organize this job will give you fulfilment:).
• Ability to use apps on your phone is a must as the grocery lists are all on shared apps.
• Must have a reliable vehicle that has lots of trunk and back seat space (small SUV is ideal).
• Having a Costco membership is an asset but not a requirement.
This position is ideal for someone looking for a few extra hours of work each week. This has been a very successful position for highly reliable university students.
You will be joining a team of personal chefs and you will be an integral part of our success during our cookdays but you will be working independently for all your hours so if you thrive when working independently, this position may be for you!
Preference will be given to candidates who live in Kanata due to the short length of some shifts, to help keep the commute practical.
Pay: $24/hour
Expected hours: 3.5 hours a week
