  • Expert Butchery: Break down beef, pork, lamb, and poultry products with precision. Prepare specialty merchandise, including house-made sausage, cured meats, and ready-to-cook entrees.

  • Team Mentorship: Lead by example by training and mentoring other Team Members on proper cutting, preparation, and presentation standards.
  • Operational Excellence: Receive and unload product deliveries, ensuring everything is stored correctly to maintain freshness and integrity.
  • Safety & Compliance: strictly follow all health, sanitation, and "Weights and Measures" procedures. You will ensure all equipment is operated and sanitized in a safe, proper manner.
  • Technical Skill: Demonstrate expert efficiency and care with hazardous equipment, including butcher knives, power slicers, and heated wrapping stations.

What We're Looking For:
  • Craftsmanship: A demonstrated passion for food and a high level of respect for the detail required in professional meat cutting.
  • Integrity: A commitment to honest dealings with products, colleagues, and customers.
  • Physical Strength: Ability to lift at least 50 lbs and work in a fast-paced, temperature-controlled environment.
  • Leadership Qualities: A proactive approach to creating a clean, safe, and welcoming environment for everyone who visits our store.

Why Join the Piggly Wiggly Meat Team?
  • Flexible Career Paths: We offer both Full-Time and Part-Time positions to fit your goals.
