About the Role: Service Deli Clerk

As a Service Deli Clerk, your day revolves around preparing, packaging, and labelling a wide range of deli products — from fresh salads and entrees to rotisserie meats and take-and-bake pizzas.

Following Costco’s set formulas and diagrams ensures every product meets the department’s high standards.

Food safety is a top priority in this role. You’ll be expected to comply with health codes, including proper sanitation practices, temperature monitoring, and pull-date management.

Strong teamwork and a willingness to pitch in wherever needed are key to success here.
