There are also unionized openings on the overnight crew, as well as for cashiers, porters, baggers, home shoppers, and drivers.

“Many members of Stop & Shop’s leadership team started as part-time associates. The roles we offer at Stop & Shop are more than jobs, they are growth opportunities,” said Michelle Castellana, Human Resource Lead for Stop & Shop.

According to Stop & Shop, part-time workers receive paid training, flexible schedules, and paid time off, along with an employee discount.
