Our purpose at The Warehouse Group (TWG) is ‘Helping Kiwis live better every day.’ TWG has become a Kiwi household name, and we proudly recognise the role that we play in communities throughout New Zealand. We are the largest general merchandise retailer in NZ with over $3 billion in sales, and employ over 12,000 people across The Warehouse, Warehouse Stationery, Noel Leeming, Torpedo7 and TheMarket.com. To ensure we can adapt quickly to ever-changing customer needs, we’ve adopted an agile structure with a focus on collaboration, productivity, and speed-to-market.
Job Outline:
Sitting within the Insights, Data & Services Chapter Area (and reporting into the Intelligent Automation Chapter Lead) you will be allocated to a squad, where you will work collaboratively with a cross-functional team to deliver outcomes identified as part of the Quarterly Business Review process.
Your focus will be around analysing processes & then developing Robotic Process Automation (RPA) to replace manual processes ultimately improving productivity & making life easier for our team members! This is an awesome opportunity for someone who enjoys helping users in automating tasks & allowing legacy technology to be integrated with modern systems.
What we are looking for:
You will be a key driver of change, so your strong analytical skills coupled with your ability to make things happen will be key to success. Equally important is your mindset and attitude, as we believe if someone has the curiosity, collaboration skills and drive then you will flourish in our environment.

- Having worked in RPA and/or process automation projects before
- Expertise in process analysis, design and mapping - using tools like Visio and Lucid Chart

Reviews
Forecasting sales, setting budgets. Loading promotions.
Creation of jobs, screening, shadowing lots of different areas such as phone screening, engaging in a wide array of meetings, solving queries from store managers. Editing job advertisements, working on a self-mangaged project.
My daily tasks involved basic admin work. Once the admin tasks were completed each morning my day to day responsibility's would change depending on what project I was working on. It focused most on sustainably & improving customer experience.

Pros and cons of working at The Warehouse Group
Pros
The workplace environment and the people.
Pay was fantastic, as they did not even need to pay us.
Great HR recruiters, very helpful and always respond so fast.
Excellent, I really believe I have made myself better for future roles, and acquired lots of areas to self-reflect on.
The flexible work environment, the willingness to always help and guide.
Cons
The varied workload, but this was only an issue in the first few weeks.
I did have to move desks often, and it was difficult at times when my mentors sat further away based on the hot desking.
For future roles, it will be great with the job experience, but I believe there won't be much development in my role as after the internship is done there isn't room for us to be employees.
"I cannot specifically remember questions, but it was a lot of self-reflection to see how I could base myself in this role.
One final session on what us as interns did well, and what should our next steps be in our employment in any business.
