Walmart Canada’s Toronto Stockyards location is looking for a General Merchandise Associate to join their in-store team. If you’re someone who takes pride in keeping shelves stocked, customers happy, and the sales floor running smoothly, this could be a solid fit. It’s a temporary (fixed-term) position with flexible scheduling across mornings, afternoons, evenings, and nights.

Day to day, you’ll be on the floor — stocking product, zoning your assigned area, supporting customers with finding merchandise, and pitching in wherever the store needs you. It’s a hands-on role that keeps you moving and engaged throughout your shift.

About the Role: General Merchandise Associate

As a General Merchandise Associate, your main focus is maintaining a well-organized, customer-ready sales floor in the general merchandise section.

This role blends physical work with customer interaction, making it ideal for someone who enjoys variety in their workday.

You’ll also be expected to follow Walmart’s safety and compliance standards — completing safety sweeps, ensuring displays and fixtures are secure, and maintaining a clean, hazard-free environment. The team counts on everyone to communicate well and cover their area reliably, so being a dependable team player matters here.

Benefits and Salary

This position starts at a minimum rate of $17.75/hour. Walmart Canada also offers associates access to a store discount, Deferred Profit Sharing, EQ Health support, and the Live Better U education program. Benefits such as comprehensive health coverage, life insurance, and paid time off are available depending on employment status and hours worked.
