Amazon Fresh has advertised more than 100 new jobs as it plans to open warehouses in Australia later this year.
As part of this move, positions are initially offered in the marketing, sales, IT and HR divisions, reported News.com.au.
Amazon Fresh is a part of e-commerce retailer Amazon, which intends to provide a new shopping experience to customers by integrating offline outlets with those of online ordering in a seamless manner.
Its quick delivery service will be available as part of a Amazon Prime membership.
News.com.au quoted an advertisement for a Brisbane position as stating: “As a member of a team focused on innovation, you will be responsible for building a system to support a new and confidential Amazon Fresh initiative that will help revolutionise the grocery shopping experience."
The online retailer reportedly promises to provide same-day grocery delivery at a 30% cheaper rate than offline rivals.
