Assistant Manager
Feb 20217 to 8 years in the role, current employee
Best supportive company to work for and lots of opportunity to expand skills.
The good thingsAustralian owned family business. Opportunity to progress in role I started as part time 8 years ago and have been manager and now assistant manager (returned from maternity leave).
Great team environment. Head office support always just a call or email away.
Set hours and work days which makes it easy for me with no family support to have daycare and school care set the same every week providing a set routine for me and my family.
Great quality products I love to sell and have myself in our home.
Opportunity to move to different locations.
I love my team I work with we all consistently support, learn and help each other out.
The challengesThe initial training can take a bit to get around all products if coming from non experienced backgrounds but supportive team and head office training and training manuals to follow help very much with learning and on the road training with team members is great.

Manager
Oct 2020A great company to work for
The good thingsA really positive work environment with friendly, supportive co-workers/management. Gratitude is regularly passed down from upper management, and in my experience it is one of the few workplaces that doesn't make you feel like you are just a number.
The challengesInitially I thought learning the technical aspects of the industry was going to be a challenge. I was placed with a supportive team and on the job training was provided which made it an easy and rewarding transition from your typical retail environment.
