Walmart’s Port Coquitlam location is looking for a Deli Associate to join their in-store team at 2150 Hawkins St. This is a hands-on role at the heart of the store’s food service operations, where you’ll be preparing and serving deli items, managing product freshness, and delivering the kind of customer experience that keeps shoppers coming back.

Day to day, you’ll be working behind the deli counter — slicing meats and cheeses, preparing hot foods like rotisserie chicken, stocking display cases, and helping customers with their orders. It’s a role that blends food handling skills with genuine customer interaction in a busy retail environment.

About the Role: Deli Associate

Keeping the department well-zoned and properly stocked is a key part of keeping things running smoothly.

This role also requires strict adherence to food safety standards, including cold chain compliance, thermometer calibrations, temperature recording, and proper product rotation. You’ll be part of a team that values collaboration, reliability, and a positive attitude — whether you’re assisting front-end associates with price checks or helping a customer pick out the right cut of deli meat.

Benefits and Salary

The minimum rate of pay for this position starts at $18.30 per hour. Walmart Canada also offers a range of benefits including a store associate discount, deferred profit sharing, access to the Live Better U education program, and EQ Health support. Comprehensive benefits, life insurance, and paid time off are available based on hours worked and employment status.
