Distribution Centre Team Leader
Detalhes do emprego
Here at Ceres Organics, we believe every bite we each take can make for a better tomorrow. By simply choosing organic food, we can create positive change in the world. For over 40 years Ceres Organics has led the way in organic food. We started as a small collective of likeminded people, sharing a belief that good living started with good food and that without question, good food was organic food. Our goal was to make delicious, good-for-you, organic food available to more people - right from our one little shop. More than a few thought we were crazy. Forty years on our goal hasn't changed. In fact, our belief in what we're doing has only grown stronger and the urgency greater. We're still the crazy ones, but the world has begun to wake up to the benefits of organics and our one shop is now hundreds of stores where our organic goodness is available to many. We know that the challenges we are facing today can feel overwhelming. But like we did 40 years ago, by starting with just one small store and one big idea, we believe each and every one of us can collectively start to make a huge difference to ourselves, our families, and the Earth by making small incremental changes. Let's eat for change.
