Bring your customer service skills, cash-handling experience and practical, hands-on approach to a varied live-in role on the remote coastal Northern Territory. This is an opportunity for someone who enjoys working with people, is confident working independently and doesn’t mind getting stuck into a little bit of everything — from serving customers and operating the register to monitoring the fuel forecourt, restocking shelves and preparing basic takeaway food.
This busy remote venue provides an essential service to locals, travellers and visitors, offering 24-hour fuel, ice, fishing supplies, hot food, cold drinks, snacks, fuel containers, vehicle batteries and much more.

- Operating the register and serving customers
- Providing friendly and efficient customer service
- Responding to customer enquiries and resolving complaints professionally

- Keeping an eye on the forecourt and maintaining a safe environment

- Preparing basic takeaway food, including simple cooking and sushi preparation
- Following food safety and handling procedures
- Bagging and handling ice
- General cleaning and housekeeping duties
- Following and enforcing workplace safety and security procedures
- Assisting with other duties as required
What We’re Looking For
You’ll be well suited to this role if you are:
- Experienced in customer service, retail, fuel station or similar environments
- Confident handling cash and operating a register
- Friendly, approachable and professional with customers
- A positive person who is comfortable with early starts
- Reliable, flexible and happy to work a varied roster
- A strong communicator who works well as part of a team
- Comfortable taking initiative and working independently
- Able to follow food safety, workplace safety and security procedures
- Physically capable of standing for extended periods and undertaking regular manual handling
