“Our relationship with the Associates is a partnership in the truest sense. It’s the only reason our company has been able to consistently outperform the competition – and even our own expectations.” - Sam Walton

Walmart has had enormous success and growth since arriving in Canada. One of the reasons we've been able to achieve that level of success is the quality of leadership we have in our stores. Retail management is a fast-paced career filled with challenges and possibilities.

Because service to our customers is always at the forefront of everything we do, our store managers and assistant managers are responsible for developing, motivating and mentoring associates. Each assistant manager is responsible for millions of dollars in sales volume. In order to be successful, they must have excellent problem-solving, financial and budget analysis skills. We empower our managers to make those decisions that are necessary to ensure we continue to provide our customers with a pleasant shopping experience.

Walmart is always looking for the best leaders to manage our stores and help us build on our success. We're growing and we need strong leaders to grow with us. If this is the challenge you are looking for, please click here to view the exciting possibilities in retail management.

Store of Learning

In order to develop the skills necessary to manage a multi-million dollar store, Walmart Canada Corp has developed a program for our retail managers of the future called "Store of Learning". This eight-week program is the starting point for our future assistant and store managers. It provides our future leaders with invaluable store experience and classroom learning through hands-on experience, leadership development tools and the technical skills needed to manage various areas within our stores. In Store of Learning, you will learn the many facets of managing a retail store, such as merchandising, operations, inventory control, people management & development and the ins and outs of customer service. Once you've successfully completed our Store of Learning program, you'll be placed in one of our stores as an assistant manager.

We're committed to making you the best retail leader you can be. If you are motivated, energetic, have a thirst for knowledge and a drive to excel, the Store of Learning is the perfect solution for you.

Every day millions of customers turn to Walmart to help them live better. Which means that as a Walmart store associate your job is about much more than selling products-it's about helping people everywhere live better. We do that through the value we offer in our products, and the values we practice in our everyday work.

To a work in a Walmart store is to help fulfill this important mission. It's also a chance to be part of family with a unique culture and history. Drawing from the vision of retailing that Sam Walton set forth in 1962, together we have built a company that associates can be proud of, and that our customers and communities value.

Keeping millions of customers happy takes knowledge, coordination, and lots of work.
