Beginning Oct. 3, select St. Louis-based Schnucks stores will offer employees a flex assignment option, allowing people to optimize their work schedules by selecting shifts and store locations that best fit their personal schedules.
“At Schnucks, a primary goal is to position our employees for success, and we are excited to offer this new opportunity to both our current and prospective teammates,” said Laura Freeman, chief people officer. “Much like rideshare and food delivery service employees, Flexforce employees will be able to seek and claim shifts at the time and location of their choosing.”
Employees will be able to log into a Schnucks scheduling app to view and claim open shifts and, if they choose, can also opt-in to receive notifications of open shifts.
Flexforce starting pay is $12.85 per hour and is currently reserved for those at least 18 years old. Flexforce members will receive the same benefits and perks as traditional employees.
Career Fair
Schnucks is hosting a company-wide career fair at all 112 stores across Missouri, Illinois, Indiana and Wisconsin, as well as the Schnucks Bakery Plant on Oct. 6.
Schnucks plans to hire for several positions offering flexible schedules and locations, career advancement, the option to be paid after each shift, health benefits, discounts and other teammate perks. Most positions are part-time to start. No experience is necessary.
To expedite the process, prospective employees planning to attend the fair should visit schnucks.com/careers and complete the online application prior to attending.
