About the Role: Assistant Store Manager

The Assistant Store Manager at Dollarama plays a hands-on role in overseeing daily retail store operations.

Benefits and Salary

This position starts at $17.60 per hour. The role is full-time, with a schedule determined based on store operational needs, including availability for 40–50 hours weekly across days, evenings, and weekends. Working with a well-established and growing Canadian retailer also comes with the stability of being part of a recognized national brand.
