Planner
Started as a casual sales consultant in 2011 and on our Graduate Programme in 2017
Core Group has given me a voice. I have the freedom to think outside the box, make my own decisions, and not feel pressured to conform, as well as having all my thoughts be heard. I am allowed to grow and show off my skills and knowledge. Core Group has allowed me to continuously stretch myself in doing things I’m not always comfortable doing. Working with true professionals who I can learn from and who will push me to take on any challenge given to me.
Funded Channel Operations Manager
Started 2010 as an Assistant Store Manager
At Core Group we thrive in the most diverse and complex, yet most rewarding work environment I’ve ever known. Every employee has a stake in the company’s success. Our business culture promotes growth and celebrates collective goals instead of individual glory. Never before have I been this supported by an organisation while venturing far outside my comfort zone with every new initiative. Innovation is a key driver of our success. The Core family is resourceful, energetic and fun to work with - We love what we do and it shows in our passion and our strong relationships with our customers. It’s been 11 years and every day I feel the excitement of coming to work as if it were day 1.
Senior HR Officer
Started in 2009 as a Payroll Administrator
My career started fresh out of school. I was determined not to burden my family with higher education but to rather become independent and grow myself at a pace I desired. By setting goals for my life, I was able to work my way through many different roles in various job sectors in search of that place I could find my fit, settle in and call my home. In 2009, I realised my dream when I joined The Core Group. It was a spring board that challenged me to grow and helped me explore unknown territories causing me to use my creativity and discover my untapped potential. My colleagues or should I say, my extended family, creates for me daily an environment that is relaxed, casual, sometimes serious but most of the time fun…who gets to prank their boss and still live to see another day! Here at Core Group we have learnt how to live out our brand!
We are looking for employees that are unique individuals whose varied talents and experiences bring value to the way they connect people. Join a diverse team of passionate individuals as diversity and inclusion are part of our top priorities.
