That’s why we need dependable, enthusiastic individuals like you to consider joining us.

As an Assistant Manager with Wal-Mart, you will be entrusted with making area-specific merchandising, operations and people development decisions, including budgeting/forecasting and assessing economic trends and demographic information. Your ideas and sales strategies will ensure the success of your department and create opportunities for new growth. You also will contribute to Wal-Mart’s sustainability efforts, such as waste and energy reduction, that have a positive environmental, socioeconomic and business impact.

During 8 weeks of classroom and in-store training, you will become familiar with all aspects of running a multi-million dollar business, including Leadership, Merchandising, Customer Service, Inventory, Profit/Loss, and Civic Responsibility. Upon graduation, you can be promoted to an Assistant Manager of a Wal-Mart Store, Super Center or Neighborhood Market, where you’ll gain the valuable hands-on management experience that will drive your future success.

Candidates must demonstrate the highest of ethical standards, a passion for excellent customer service, an appreciation for diversity (in culture, style, views), as well as the ability to foster a supportive, collaborative and productive environment.

CO-MANAGERS AND MANAGERS

As a Co-Manager at Wal-Mart, you will build upon your solid leadership abilities, expanding your experience throughout all areas of the store and taking on the new challenge of supervising Managers, all of which is vital to your success as you continue to advance your facility management career path. In this developmental role, you will drive sales, ensure legal/procedural compliance, as well as provide direction, supervision, guidance and training/development opportunities to Associates. The next step in your career may then be a Store Manager, responsible for the performance of total store operations. In addition to the characteristics listed above, a Store Manager must demonstrate delegation skills, raise diversity awareness, provide performance management and train/team-build. Two years of retail management and two years of supervisory experience are essential.
