- Articulate and numerate, with an eye for detail and accuracy and an understanding of business.
- The ability to stand for most of the day and to lift and shift stock/equipment, etc.
- Smart appearance.
- Experience in EPOS systems and touch screen till operation.
- Experience in stock control, including placing orders with multiple suppliers, would be an advantage.
- Experience in visual merchandising of fresh food would be useful.
- Food hygiene/allergy awareness certification would be useful.
- The opportunity to be a valuable part of an award-winning Cornish brand.

- A permanent, year-round salaried contract for regular hours.
- The chance to contribute ideas within a nimble, fast-growing enterprise.
