Ready to Take the Next Step in Your Retail Leadership Career?
At The Dunn Group, we’re more than just a convenience retailer—we’re a family-owned Australian business with over 30 years of success, operating 12 busy fuel and convenience sites across NSW. Alongside our trusted retail stores, we’re proud to offer our growing Balmain Coffee Company and our popular Supply – Your Local Food Store range of fresh, made-in-store products.
As our business continues to grow, we’re looking for an enthusiastic and motivated Assistant Store Manager to join our leadership team and support our Upper Blue Mountains locations.

You’ll ideally have:
- Minimum 3 years’ management experience within retail, hospitality, convenience or a similar fast-paced environment.
