About this role
At Acme Markets' Missoula location, you'd work full-time in the deli department preparing fresh foods and serving customers directly. Your day balances customer-facing work—taking orders for sliced meats, cheeses, and hot items—with behind-the-scenes tasks like restocking displays, monitoring product freshness, and maintaining sanitation standards. The role demands comfort with standing for long stretches, lifting up to 35 pounds, and operating slicers and food prep equipment. You'll need solid math skills for portioning and transactions, plus the ability to stay organized and efficient when customer demand picks up.
This position suits someone with prior food service or customer service experience who enjoys a fast-paced environment and can communicate clearly with customers in person and over the phone. You should be detail-oriented enough to handle accurate portioning and labeling, adaptable to shifting schedules (early mornings, evenings, weekends, and holidays included), and committed to following food safety procedures. You must be at least 18 years old.
Albertsons Companies offers competitive weekly pay, flexible scheduling, associate discounts, and benefits for eligible employees including medical and dental coverage, a 401k, and paid time off. The company emphasizes training and career development, with leaders invested in helping you grow within the organization.
