My role at Bunnings was as a Service Desk attendant. This not only involved serving the customer, through processing sales, refunds and enquiries, but also involved taking a day-to-day supervisory role over the register operators, making sure that they are rostered correctly, that they are allocated breaks, and that we as a team are coping with customer demand.
