• Clean and sanitize store areas, including floors, shelves, and restrooms, to maintain a safe and inviting shopping environment.
• Assist with receiving and unloading deliveries, verifying accuracy against invoices.
• Organize backroom inventory and maintain accurate stock levels to prevent out-of-stocks.
• Support departments by building displays, setting up promotional signage, and pricing items accurately.

Night Clerks must be reliable, able to work overnight hours (typically 10 PM to 7 AM), and committed to Kroger's customer-first philosophy. Training is provided, but flexibility and attention to detail are essential for success in this fast-paced role.
