The gap between 98 Dublin listings on Indeed and just 9 on Jobs.ie means job seekers miss out if they rely on a single platform. Checking multiple sources is non-negotiable.
Job seekers in Ireland face a fragmented market: aggregators like Indeed and Jobs.ie capture different slices of the same pool. The 98 Dublin listings on Indeed vs. 9 on Jobs.ie show the importance of checking multiple sources.
The table below sums up where the numbers stand right now.
| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| Jobs on Indeed (Dublin grocery) | 98 |
| Jobs on Jobs.ie (County Dublin) | 9 |
| Jobs on IrishJobs.ie (Dublin assistant) | 25 |
| SuperValu careers page | Active |
| Lidl jobs portal | Nationwide |
| National minimum wage (20+ years, from Jan 2026) | €13.50 per hour (Citizens Information (government guidance)) |
The pattern is clear: Indeed offers the widest net, but local boards like Jobs.ie catch listings the big aggregators miss. The €13.50 minimum wage from the Low Pay Commission (statutory body) sets a firm floor for pay.

How can I find part-time supermarket jobs near me?
Using job aggregators: Indeed, Jobs.ie, IrishJobs.ie
- Indeed Ireland – 88 supermarket openings in May 2026 (later count was 98) (Indeed Ireland).
- Jobs.ie – 9 supermarket jobs in County Dublin (Jobs.ie).
- Glassdoor – 51 part-time grocery store jobs in Ireland (Glassdoor Ireland).
Filtering by part-time and location
- Indeed and Jobs.ie allow schedule and location filters – use “part-time” and a postcode or town.
- Glassdoor’s filter for “part-time” narrows results; the site also shows employer-provided pay estimates.
- For Dublin, set the radius to 20 km to capture suburban stores.
Direct applications on supermarket websites
- Lidl Ireland – roles nationwide apply via Lidl Ireland Jobs.
- SuperValu – careers page lists store manager, team leader, and more (SuperValu careers).
- Centra – applications through their careers portal (Centra Careers).
- Boots Ireland – retail jobs across the country, support office in Citywest, Dublin (Boots Retail Jobs Ireland (pharmacy & retail chain)).
The implication: using both aggregators and company portals gives you the widest coverage. Aggregators catch the majority, but some chains post exclusively on their own site.
Listings on company sites may not appear on Indeed or Jobs.ie for days. If you apply directly, you skip the middleman but may miss newer aggregator-listed roles.
What job opportunities are there at SuperValu?
Store manager and team leader roles
- SuperValu’s careers page features store management, team leader, and deli assistant positions (SuperValu careers).
- Glassdoor Ireland lists a shopfloor assistant role at €14.15 per hour (employer-reported) (Glassdoor Ireland).

- Alternatively, search “SuperValu jobs” on Indeed or Jobs.ie for aggregated listings.
What this means: SuperValu is a reliable employer for those seeking management progression, but the exact number of nationwide openings isn’t publicly stated – checking regularly is key.

- SuperValu – multiple Dublin stores listed on aggregators.
- Boots Ireland – retail roles in Dublin and surrounding areas (Boots Retail Jobs Ireland).

Tips for choosing a supermarket employer

- Ask about hours: Many part-time roles offer 12–25 hours per week.

How to apply for supermarket jobs online?
Step-by-step application process
- Create a short, tailored CV highlighting customer service and any till or stock experience.
- Search on Indeed, Jobs.ie, or Glassdoor using “supermarket” and location plus “part-time” filter.
- Click “Apply” – many listings redirect to the employer’s portal (e.g., Lidl, SuperValu) or allow one-click application.
- Complete any pre-screening questions (availability, experience).
- Submit and wait 1–3 weeks for a response.
Using Indeed and Jobs.ie
- Indeed Ireland – sign up, upload CV, and apply with one click.
- Jobs.ie – similar structure; set job alerts for “supermarket Dublin”.

Preparing a CV and interview tips
- Emphasise reliability, flexibility, and basic maths for cashier roles.

The pattern: online applications dominate, but following up with a phone call to the store can set you apart in a competitive market.
Some aggregator listings may be duplicate or expired. Cross-check the date stamp and, if possible, verify the opening on the supermarket’s own careers page before applying.
