“My fresh ideas are always welcome.”
Careers for a better life.
At SpartanNash, we deliver "what our guests want, when they want it – fast and friendly." We take pride in service excellence and enjoy providing a great customer experience. There are many retail employers, but not all offer a place where you can learn, grow and thrive. That’s why SpartanNash is a cut above the rest.
SpartanNash currently operates grocery stores in nine states: Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota and Wisconsin. We offer groceries, fresh produce and locally sourced products, as well as a wide variety of quality meats and fresh seafood, bakeries, full-service delis and floral departments. Many of our stores have a pharmacy and an adjacent fuel center.

“I always listen to associates”
I always listen to associates to make sure they are being taken care of. They are an important part of my team and I depend on them as much as they depend on me. Seeing happy customers who know us by name – that’s the biggest indicator of success.
- Mike, Store Director, Family Fare

“We care about each other”
We create relationships with each other and our customers. It’s very friendly and everyone works together as a team to serve the customer. We offer great flexibility. There's always a schedule to fit your lifestyle, as well as opportunities if you have the desire.
- Bonghee, Cashier, Family Fare

“We're like a family here”
As district manager, I find it satisfying to pick out associates’ strengths and help them shine, whether it’s tapping into their existing talents or helping them discover new ones. There are lots of opportunities to grow and develop if you're willing to put in the effort.
- Nicole, District Manager

Friendly family
Our retail associates say that our stores have a family and neighborhood feel. Each and every associate is valued. First names matter, not your position and title. You’ll enjoy our team environment, where everyone supports each other.

Growth in store
Our fast-paced retail environments lead to fast-paced careers and professional growth. Training is at the pace you prefer. You can learn the basics in a department and potentially move into a lead, specialist or management role within 1-2 years. Promotion is based on mastery of skill, not how long you’ve been in a position.

Fun for foodies
We’re always looking for your new ideas on how to create a better experience and building customer relationships. If you appreciate new and interesting products, international foods and sharing the benefits of a healthier lifestyle with customers, this is a great place for you.

Career portability
You can move within the store or to another location, from one store to another, or from a store to corporate, for example. If you are interested in a long-term career, you will have that opportunity.

More perks
Stores work with associates to balance work/life through flexible scheduling. You will also enjoy casual dress, a store discount, bonuses and tuition reimbursement for Department Manager roles and above.
