Dollarama Jobs in Canada: Store Roles and How to Apply
Dollarama is a Canadian value retailer with more than 1,600 stores across the country and a goal of operating 2,200 stores by 2035, according to the company. Most Dollarama jobs are in its stores, but the company also hires for its distribution centre and warehouses and for its head office in Montreal. This guide explains the main roles, what Dollarama says about training and career growth, and how to apply on its official careers site.
Store Roles at Dollarama
Dollarama’s careers site describes three levels of store positions:
- Store Associate – performs the general operations of the store and supports the receiving of merchandise, placing products on the shelves according to company standards.
- Team Leader and Assistant Team Leader – support the store managers in running the store day to day, supervising, training and motivating store associates and making sure company policies are followed.
- Store Manager and Assistant Store Manager – manage the daily operations of the store, including visual merchandising, performance management, recruiting and training new employees, scheduling and inventory.
Distribution Centre, Warehouse and Head Office Jobs
Beyond its stores, Dollarama employs hundreds of people at its distribution centre and warehouses in the Montreal area, including Laval. The company has also announced a new distribution centre in the Calgary area, expected to begin operations by the end of 2027, and it is already posting management and supervisory roles for that site. Its head office in Montreal has teams in areas such as accounting, finance, human resources, information technology, logistics, purchasing, real estate and replenishment. These positions are listed separately on jobs.dollarama.com.
Pay and Benefits
Dollarama says that it offers flexible work conditions, competitive wages and benefits, and meaningful career advancement opportunities. Its careers site does not publish a standard hourly rate for store positions. Pay depends on the position and on the province, since each province sets its own minimum wage, so ask about the starting rate and the benefits you would be eligible for during the hiring process.
Training and Career Growth
According to Dollarama, all new employees receive training on topics such as technical skills, health and safety, and harassment and discrimination, and training hours are paid. The company says it uses its performance reviews to identify advancement opportunities, and the store team is organised in levels, from Store Associate to Team Leader and then to Store Manager, which gives employees a clear path to grow within the company.
