Job Types: Full-time

Canadian Tire has been around for 100 years, and we see the reason why every time we come to work. Our amazing team at Canadian Tire Hillside has been working together and serving our community with pride since the day we opened. We've cultivated a collection of talented and varied people from all walks of life who work together to achieve success as a unified team. Our watchwords are honesty, integrity, and respect, and we work hard to provide a place where people can work and shop efficiently and comfortably, where the faces they see are a reflection of the diversity within the community we serve.

As a business, we continue to grow, serving the best customers in Victoria, allowing for growth within as well. Our team members can find many opportunities to grow and advance, in fact, most of our management team started in entry-level roles in the past, including the store's owner!
