About Wesfarmers
As one of Australia’s largest listed companies, we’re proud of our longstanding contribution to Australians. Wesfarmers’ achievements are deeply rooted in the desire to continually reinvent ourselves for the brands we own and operate, including leading retailers like Bunnings, Kmart, Target, Officeworks and Priceline. Our work doesn’t stop there, we operate in the industrials sector which supplies the nation with chemicals, energy and fertilisers, and industrial and safety products. And in 2022, we established OneDigital to power the Group’s data and digital growth ambitions.

We’re results focused, but we’re a business that cares. Here we are less about titles and more about everyone playing a valuable role. We provide autonomy and space with freedom to operate, quickly learning from mistakes because we know they are part of the way forward. We’re curious, open minded, and collaborative. And although we’re thought leaders, we’re humble, and willing to share knowledge and learn from one another.
We know that diversity fosters greater innovation and better customer connection, so we strive to create an inclusive and diverse work environment. This means promoting the development of our people and fostering a sense of belonging irrespective of gender, ethnicity, generation, flexible work status, family circumstances, sexual orientation or disability.
