Job Description

King Soopers, based in Colorado, is a prominent supermarket chain that has become an integral part of the communities it serves throughout Colorado and Wyoming. Founded several decades ago, King Soopers merged with The Kroger Company in 1983, joining one of the largest grocery retailers in the United States. This merger bolstered King Soopers' ability to provide high-quality products and services, reinforcing its commitment to customer satisfaction and operational excellence in over 115 stores. King Soopers prides itself on not just being a grocery retailer, but a community hub where diverse teams share a passion for food, customer care, and innovation. As part of the Kroger family of companies, King Soopers upholds a mission to "Feed the Human Spirit," emphasizing the importance of nourishing both people and communities with integrity and respect. The organization's core values—respect, honesty, integrity, diversity, inclusion, and safety—are deeply embedded in its culture and daily operations.

This role focuses on maintaining safe and sanitary conditions throughout King Soopers stores in strict adherence to company standards and health department regulations. The position plays an essential part in ensuring the cleanliness and safety of the store environment, which is crucial to customer experience and operational success.

As a vital member of the team, the individual in this position embodies the company’s commitment to creating a welcoming and hygienic environment for customers and coworkers alike.

The ideal candidate will be a detail-oriented, reliable individual who understands the importance of cleanliness and safety in a retail setting and who demonstrates teamwork and communication skills. This role offers flexible scheduling in both full- and part-time capacities, making it suitable for individuals seeking balance along with rewarding work. King Soopers offers competitive pay, comprehensive employee benefits—including medical, dental, and vision insurance—and opportunities for career growth through industry-leading training and continuing education programs. The company supports the physical, emotional, and financial well-being of its associates, emphasizing the value of a supportive workplace where everyone has the potential to succeed.

Working at King Soopers means joining a community that values your contributions and is committed to fostering diversity, inclusion, and career development. Whether you are seeking your first job or looking to advance your career in the grocery retail industry, King Soopers provides a solid foundation and support system to help you thrive. The role requires someone with the ability to follow directions, manage conflict with professionalism, and act with honesty and integrity while interacting with customers and colleagues. If you bring a caring attitude, a strong work ethic, and a willingness to learn, King Soopers invites you to apply and become part of a family that values each associate’s unique recipe for success.
