Coles is looking to hire more than 70 digital professionals to join its e-commerce business.
The Connect Every Moment recruitment campaign is targeting digital professionals with experience working in software engineering, UX and UI design, analytics, product management and delivery.
Coles GM Customer Experience and Technology Sujeet Rana says the campaign will give great digital talent an important insight into the breadth of innovative and interesting work the team has delivered, and what lies ahead on its digital roadmap.
“Coles is far more than just a supermarket. We are doing really meaningful work in driving sustainability and the teams are working on highly visible initiatives that are impacting millions of lives across our communities,” he says.
“In the past two years, e-commerce at Coles has accelerated at a rapid pace as we worked to keep the nation fed and meet growing demand for online shopping.
“We have a strong leadership group in place and a great team – we’re now looking for more people with the right blend of skill and passion to deliver seamless omnichannel experiences for our customers and help us in our vision to be the best digital team in retail by the end of 2023.”
Coles GM Online Commercials Karen Donaldson says she is eager to welcome new talent to join the Coles e-commerce team at an exciting time of change.
“This is a diverse, growing team with a strong culture of learning and support,” she says.
“We have invested in strategic alliances with Ocado (automated fulfilment technology) and WITRON (automated distribution centres) to inspire our customers and become a world-leading technology retailer.
“Over the next few years digital talent at Coles will get the opportunity to work on many ‘firsts’ for retail and for e-commerce in Australia.”
While the team is based in Coles’ Melbourne Store Support Centre, expressions of interest are welcome from digital professionals across Australia.
