About the role
Join Our Liquor Co. 1977 Team!
WHO WE ARE
Our crafted legacy stems from 1977, when a group of residents from the Saanich Peninsula started Peninsula Co-op. Driven by a shared belief in community and cooperative values, they embarked on a journey with the simple goal of serving, supporting and connecting their neighbours. The spirit of that inaugural year is the inspiration in our liquor stores, but it’s not just about savouring the past. It’s about inviting people to craft memorable moments, one sip at a time, while pouring love back into our community. We’re a different kind of business. And that difference begins with membership.

- Is physically capable of standing for extended periods and handling products up to 50 lb.
- Is able to successfully pass a criminal record check
- Has a current Serving It Right certificate (required in advance of starting)
WHAT YOU’LL BE DOING
Besides working with the best group of teammates and fantastic customers, you’ll be stocking the store, processing till transactions, and generally ensuring our customers & members are taken care of, and the location is clean and safe.
WHAT WE OFFER
In addition to a starting wage of $18.81, Peninsula Co-op provides a competitive total compensation package that includes:
- Great careers and long-term opportunity for personal and professional growth
