These are opportunities for Publix associates or outside candidates to get their foot in the door at our Corporate Offices or at our Distribution Centers and Manufacturing Plants. But our clerical positions are more than just stepping stones to a long career. They are vital to the successful operation of a huge supermarket chain. Their ContributionsOur talented clerical support teams:
Their NumbersWe have nearly 1,100 clerical positions in our support areas. Most of themmore than 800are in our Corporate Offices in Lakeland. The rest are in our Divisional Offices in Atlanta, Jacksonville and Miami, in our Distribution Centers in Atlanta, Boynton Beach, Deerfield Beach, Jacksonville, Miami, Orlando, and Sarasota, and in our Manufacturing Plants in Atlanta, Deerfield and Jacksonville. Clerical PositionsHourly Support 1 positions usually require data entry skills, basic computer skills, and good customer service skills. Hourly Support 2 and Secretary I positions usually require more advanced computer skills (including the ability to create and proofread documents and spreadsheets), strong customer service skills (including exemplary phone etiquette), and basic research skills. Time management is essential to effectively handle the multi-tasking involved in these positions. Hourly Support 3 and Secretary II positions usually require some mathematical skills, sophisticated computer skills (including the ability to create and maintain databases), and advanced customer service skills. These associates often serve as a department's primary contact, assist internal and external customers with complex problems, and train other associates about administrative policies and procedures. They perform some analytical tasks, deal with confidential information, and must have the maturity and self-discipline to work independently. These associates are superior multi-taskers! A few of our clerical positions have other titles such as Distribution Operator and Mail Clerk/Courier. We also have Hourly Support 4 and Hourly Support 5 positions, which require very specialized skills. Most clerical openings are filled by promoting from within, but there are many clerical opportunities each year that are available to outside candidates.
