About the Role:

Are you a retail or hospitality leader seeking adventure, purpose, and variety? We’re looking for a Relief Manager to oversee store operations across remote Indigenous communities in the Northern Territory and Far North Queensland.

This role requires relocation to remote areas, where you’ll manage stores in some of the most stunning and culturally rich parts of Australia. It’s a unique chance to live differently, contribute meaningfully, and experience a side of the country few ever do.

With accommodation and utilities covered, minimal expenses, and a strong salary, it’s also a great opportunity to save—whether for a house deposit, to pay off debts, or boost your travel fund.

What’s on Offer:

• Fully furnished accommodation in community, with all utilities included
• Comprehensive relocation support to ensure a smooth transition
• 7 weeks of annual leave with 17.5% leave loading
• 13.5% superannuation for long-term financial security
• Mobile phone allowance
• Two paid return flights per year to Darwin
• Salary packaging up to $15,900 per annum, with additional benefits for meals and entertainment
• $85,000 + Superannuation
• Ongoing opportunity to travel between communities across NT and QLD
• Be part of a tight-knit, supportive retail team working with purpose

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead day-to-day operations of community stores in line with company standards
• Mentor and develop local team members, building skills and empowering communities
• Manage inventory, merchandising, cost control, and financial performance
• Uphold safety, hygiene, and compliance standards at all times
• Build strong relationships with local stakeholders and support community initiatives
• Support all operational tasks including stock handling, restocking, and checkout duties as needed

What You'll Need:

• Proven leadership experience in retail or hospitality, ideally in fast-paced, high-volume environments
• Flexibility and willingness to relocate and live full-time in remote communities
• Strong team leadership and coaching ability
• Budgeting and stock control experience
• Competency using retail systems (POS, stock, staff management)
• A current or willingness to obtain Certificate III in Retail and a Food Hygiene Certificate
• Current or eligible for an NT driver’s licence
• Excellent interpersonal and communication skills, adaptable across cultures and communities
• Full and unrestricted Australian working rights are essential
• Sadly, this role does not offer visa sponsorship

Why This Role?

This is more than just a job, it’s a rare opportunity to live and work in remote Australia, immerse yourself in Indigenous culture, and play a part in community progress. You’ll grow your leadership career in a unique environment while saving significantly along the way.
