At Le Fromage Yard, we're passionate about exceptional cheese, artisan food and providing what we believe is the highest level of customer service in Brisbane.
We're looking for a Junior Retail Assistant to join our team every Saturday. This is an ideal prospect for a high school student looking for their first job, someone interested in food, or someone who wants to learn valuable skills in retail and customer service.
This isn't a job where you'll stand behind a register doing the same thing every week. As your confidence and skills grow, so will your responsibilities.
Over time you'll learn:
- Customer service and sales
- Operating the register
- Sandwich making and food preparation
- Merchandising and product presentation
- Cheese tasting and product knowledge
- How to confidently recommend cheeses and other products to customers
Wages are based on the Fair Work Award.
About Us
Le Fromage Yard is an independent cheese shop based in Morningside. We pride ourselves on stocking one of Australia's finest selections of artisan cheese and gourmet products.
Our team ranges from high school students through to staff in their 50s. We work hard, support one another, enjoy a laugh together and genuinely care about delivering an outstanding experience for every customer who walks through our doors.
Who We're Looking For
We're far more interested in attitude than experience.
No previous retail or hospitality experience is required—we'll teach you everything you need to know. What we can't teach is the right attitude.
We're looking for someone who:
- Is friendly and enjoys talking to people.
- Has an excellent work ethic.
- Is reliable and punctual.
- Takes pride in doing every job properly.
- Is willing to accept feedback and continually improve.
- Enjoys learning new skills.
- Has an interest in food.
Our Expectations
Our customers choose Le Fromage Yard because they know they'll receive exceptional service every single time they visit.
That means we expect every member of our team to:
- Greet every customer warmly.
- Take pride in presenting themselves and the store.
- Be proactive rather than waiting to be asked.
- Work well as part of a team.
- Always strive to provide outstanding customer service.
We set high standards because we genuinely care about the experience our customers receive—but we'll also invest the time to help you reach those standards.
