Online grocery shopper positions refer to jobs at supermarkets that gather items for a customer’s online order, or a personal shopper who makes grocery purchases for their clients. As a supermarket online grocery shopper, you process customer orders from the internet, pulling items from store shelves, and bagging them for pick up within a specific timeframe. You may also be responsible for contacting the customer if there is a problem with their order. Some online grocery shoppers are independent contractors who provide personal shopping services to clients. In this role, you discuss shopping needs with your client to determine what they need to be purchased, and then you place the order through a supermarket's website or other grocery retailer's site, making sure to buy everything on the client’s list. Depending on the client's preference, you may have the groceries delivered or drive to the store to pick them up.
