Welcome to Woolworths Metro
Our aim at Metro is to deliver a shopping experience that satisfies a modern, on-the-go lifestyle.

Metro makes it quick, simple and inspiring to eat well every day of the week, even when you’re on the run. It's real food, real fast. We move fast, we innovate, we trial, we learn and we adapt to satisfy our customers who live life in the fast lane.
We offer real opportunities for career development, for those who love responsibility, excel in a fast paced environment and naturally interact with their team, customers and community.
You will enjoy working as part of a fast paced team environment. Everything about you will proudly represent the Metro brand in your community.
