Trainee Store Manager - Orange

At Harris Farm Markets, our stores are driven by passionate leaders who care deeply about people, product and customer experience. We’re looking for retail leaders to help lead high-performing teams in a fast-paced, fresh-food environment.

Come and grow with us in Orange! We'll teach you everything about running a Harris Farm store, from the floor to the numbers.

As a Trainee Store Manager, you'll work alongside our Store Manager to lead the team, delight customers, and keep our Albury store running like a well-oiled (and beautifully stocked) machine. You'll get hands-on training in people leadership, rostering, merchandising and compliance, all building towards your own store one day. You'll be backed by a genuinely structured training programme, not just thrown in the deep end, real milestones, real mentoring, and regular check-ins with senior retail leaders to make sure you're developing into a store manager who's up there with the best. This isn't a desk job. It's on the floor, in the thick of it, learning the Harris Farm way.

Not local to Orange? Our relocation package covers moving costs and temporary accommodation to help make the move.
