About Grocery Outlet:
About Us:
At Grocery Outlet, we love brands. Like, really love them. That’s why we work so hard every day to bring our customers the brands they love at prices that are nothing short of pure bliss. In fact, we’ve been helping customers save big since 1946. That’s when our founder Jim Read opened his very first store, selling military surplus at deep discount prices. The rest, as they say, is history. And today, the third generation of the Read family is leading the way, with 300+ stores across the nation and more than 1.5 million shoppers hitting the aisles each week. That makes Grocery Outlet the nation’s largest extreme value retailer. A feat we’re more than proud of.
How do we do it? With the help of our brilliant buyers who shop the world, travelling thousands of miles each year to find the most thrilling deals on brand name groceries. Whether it’s through packaging changes, surplus inventory or product overruns, our buyers source it all – everything from fresh meat and produce to our natural and organic NOSH items to the WOW deals we can hardly believe ourselves. And, of course, we wouldn’t be anywhere without the hundreds of local families who own and operate their own Grocery Outlet stores, allowing us to deliver superior customer service personalized to each of the local communities we serve. So, come in and see for yourself. It might seem like a dream, but we guarantee the savings couldn’t be more real.
About The Program:
This summer you could have the opportunity to join the exceptional Grocery Outlet Corporate team. Our Emeryville, Ca based program gives students real-world work experience while learning about our amazingly unique business model. In addition to your project you will be exposed to all areas of our business. Along with your day-to-day project work you will get to lunch & learn with our executives and explore what a career at Grocery Outlet is really all about. Just in case you were wondering, we hired almost 50% of our interns from last year!
Each intern will have the opportunity to work on a project that will help us solve an actual problem within our organization. No hypothetical projects here! This is a 10-week paid internship that will run from Tuesday June 18th – Friday August 23rd.
About The Project:
You will perform a deep analysis on Operator financial performance to identify expense savings opportunities that can be communicated across the Operator network. You will segment stores into relevant groups (store age, geography, sales volume, etc.) and identify over/underperforming stores. You will quantify opportunities as they relate to our long-term Operator income goals and present findings & recommendations to FinOps & Operations teams.
