About Us
Zucchini Greengrocers is a family-run business at the heart of Glasgow's Southside. We pride ourselves on offering the best quality fruit, vegetables, and groceries in a friendly, community-focused environment. Our Cathcart shop is known for its fresh produce, personal service, and a professional yet welcoming atmosphere.
Role Overview
As a Store Assistant at Zucchini Cathcart, you'll play a key part in the day-to-day running of the shop. You'll help customers, keep displays full and attractive, and make sure the store is always clean, safe, and welcoming.
This role is hands-on and varied — you'll be serving customers one minute, carrying stock the next, and making sure the produce is looking its best. We're looking for someone reliable, friendly, and ready to learn.
Key Responsibilities
* Provide excellent customer service — greeting, serving, and assisting customers with a friendly and professional manner.
* Operate the till accurately and handle payments responsibly.
* Receive, check, and restock deliveries, ensuring produce is fresh and well-presented.
* Maintain clean and tidy shop standards, including displays, counters, and stockrooms.
* Follow health & safety and food handling guidelines (PPE, safe lifting, etc).
* Support colleagues and management with daily tasks and smooth store operations.
* Uphold Zucchini's values as a local, family-run business with high standards.
Skills & Qualities We're Looking For
* Friendly and approachable with good people skills.
* Reliable, punctual, and able to work as part of a small, busy team.
* Physically able to carry stock and stand for periods of time.
* Attention to detail — keeping displays neat and spotting when stock needs rotated.
* Willingness to learn and take direction.
* Previous retail, hospitality, or customer-facing experience is helpful, but not essential.
What We Offer
* A supportive, family-run work environment.
* Training tailored to Zucchini's way of working.
* Flexible shifts that can work around school/college commitments.
* Opportunity to learn about produce, local food, and retail skills.
