Welcome to the People Team
Better experiences for our Team Members are the key to unlocking a better future for our customers and communities.

One that strengthens the foundations of our organisation, empowering passionate Team Members to become purpose-led Woolworths Group advocates and attracting a new generation of talent to the group.
What you'll do
As a trusted People Partner for our Palmerston North Distribution Centre, you will be responsible for enabling our leadership teams to deliver best in class team experiences, leveraging group people initiatives. You will be partnering with our DC leaders to deliver both strategic people and operational priorities.
Key responsibilities:

What you'll bring
You'll bring a curious mind and a passion for open and inclusive collaboration to a culture that thrives on amplifying people's impact together.
