Casual Stocktakers – Newcastle
RGIS is a global leader in stocktaking and inventory solutions, supporting major retailers across Australia and around the world. Our clients rely on us to deliver fast, accurate stock counts that help them manage their business effectively. We are currently seeking reliable, energetic, and detail-oriented individuals to join our Casual Stocktake Team in the Newcastle region.
What the Role Involves
As a Casual Stocktaker with RGIS, you will work as part of a team to complete accurate stocktakes at a variety of client locations across the Newcastle region. Key expectations of the role include:
Using a handheld RGIS scanning device to count and record inventory such as clothing, homewares, groceries, convenience items, liquor, and more
Working systematically through allocated areas to ensure every product is scanned correctly and in line with RGIS stocktake best practices
Following instruction from your Team Leader and contributing to team accuracy, productivity, and safety targets
Working in a range of environments including retail stores, storerooms, convenience stores, coolrooms, and warehouses
Standing, walking, bending, reaching, and using ladders safely to scan items at various heights
Maintaining professionalism in client stores and complying with all site safety and conduct expectations
Attending stocktakes at various locations across the District from (but not limited to) Newcastle - Raymond Terrace, Toronto and Wallsend.
Shifts generally take place outside normal trading hours (early mornings or evenings), as stocktakes occur while stores are closed to customers.
You will work at different stores each shift, providing variety and exposure to multiple environments. Some shifts may include regional travel and occasional overnight stays with accommodation provided.
This is a hands-on, active, and fast-paced role suited to people who enjoy teamwork, variety, and working in changing environments.
What We’re Looking For
We are seeking applicants who can demonstrate:
Flexibility to work a casual roster that may include early morning or evening shifts
Understanding that weekly hours vary depending on business needs (from one shift per week to several)
Reliable transport, as public transport may not operate at required start or finish times
Age 18+, due to work in liquor and tobacco retail environments and the requirement to work full shift durations that may fall outside permitted youth work hours
Strong attention to detail and accuracy
A positive, team-focused attitude and commitment to excellent service
Ability to stand for extended periods, climb ladders, and safely count stock at varying heights with a handheld scanning device
Please note: RGIS applies junior rates for employees under the age of 21 in accordance with the Miscellaneous Award. These rates are set by Fair Work and automatically apply to successful applicants aged 18–20.
Why Work With RGIS?
Flexible shifts that fit around work, study, or life commitments
A diverse, supportive team culture
Opportunities for development and progression within RGIS
Interesting, varied work with new locations each shift
Full training provided—no previous stocktake experience required
Most stocktakes run for 3–6 hours, though shift lengths vary depending on client requirements.
If this sounds like the opportunity for you, apply today and start your journey with RGIS!
Job Type: Casual
Pay: From $30.35 per hour
Application Question(s):
You’ve just joined an RGIS stocktake team and notice a count process the team is using could be faster and more accurate. Your Team leader invites feedback, suggestions, and avenues for improvements. Which of the following best describes how you would respond?
A. I’d test my ideas on my own during the next stocktake and only share results later.
B. I’d draft a brief proposal outlining my suggestions, share it with my team leader and teammates for feedback, and offer to run a small trial so everyone can learn and decide together.
C. I’d stick with the current process since it’s already approved.
D. I’d point out flaws in the existing process and push to adopt my method to eliminate inefficiencies.
DO YOU HAVE A RELIABLE VEHICLE?
