Prepared Foods Team Member (Deli Service Counter & Culinary Venues) - Part Time - Montgomery Township, New Jersey - Opening Late Summer 2026

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes description at start: "Provides support as a member of the Prepared Foods team to include preparation, counter service, sanitation, and stocking of products. All Whole Foods Market Retail jobs require ensuring a positive company image by providing courteous, friendly, and efficient service to customers and Team Members at all times. All positions must be performed in accordance with team and store Standard Operating Procedures. Further, Team Members must be prepared and able to perform the duties inherent in other Team Member job descriptions. Team Leaders are required to spend significant time on the floor, engaging with customers, and pitching in to help whenever and wherever needed. All positions must strive to support WFM core values and goals, promote national, regional, and store programs and initiatives, and ensure adherence to all applicable health and safety regulations." That's about the role. Then "Responsibilities" heading with list of duties. Then "Knowledge, Skills, & Abilities" heading with list. Then "Desired Work Experiences" heading (maybe "Qualifications"? but we have "Desired Work Experiences" line: "No prior retail experience required." That's a qualification. Could treat as "Qualifications". Also "Physical Requirements / Working Conditions" heading with list. Then "Pay" heading: wage range $17.00-$25.40 Hourly, commensurate with experience. But we must not include sections with filler like "commensurate with experience" as placeholder? The rule: do NOT emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Here we have wage range stated, so we can include Pay section with that info. However the phrase "commensurate with experience" is part of the sentence; but it's not filler alone; it's part of the description. The rule says do NOT emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", ...). That suggests if the only content is that phrase, we shouldn't include. But we have actual range plus that phrase. So we can include. Benefits: posting mentions Whole Benefits, store discount, paid time off, etc. So we can include Benefits section. Schedule: posting mentions flexible schedule including nights, weekends, holidays as needed. That's schedule info. So we can include Schedule section. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate like EEO, scam warning, application instructions, etc. Also remove note about document purpose, etc. Also remove "Click here for benefit details." and "New entry level Team Members..." etc? Those are substantive? They talk about benefits eligibility and increase after 90 days. That's still benefits info. Could include in Benefits section. But we must preserve all substantive information; not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include details about Whole Benefits eligibility, store discount, paid time off, financial wellness, health & wellness support programs, access to other perks, eligibility determination, 90-day increase. That's substantive. We also have "Physical Requirements / Working Conditions" list. We need to use

for section headings. Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

  for prose. We need to decide which sections to include: About the role (prose), Responsibilities (list), Knowledge, Skills, & Abilities (list), Qualifications? Could combine Desired Work Experiences and maybe "No prior retail experience required." as qualifications. Could also include "Physical Requirements / Working Conditions" as a section (maybe "Physical Requirements"). Pay, Benefits, Schedule. We must not create sections with filler. Ensure each heading has real content. Let's extract content. About the role paragraph: combine first paragraph(s) before "Responsibilities". That includes multiple sentences. We'll put in

  . Responsibilities: list items after "Responsibilities". Let's extract: - Cuts, prepares, and serves a variety of hot and cold foods, including meats, including meats, cheeses, sandwiches, burritos, wraps, salad, and pizza. - Samples products to customers. - Stocks hot and cold cases and displays with prepared foods from kitchen, walk-in preparation, and refrigerators. - Checks in-stock product dates to ensure freshness and rotates when necessary. - Bails and consolidates recyclables. - Assists Team Leader in organizing and displaying volume and seasonal items. - Completes spoilage, sampling, temperature, and sweep worksheets as required. - Assists with periodic inventory checks. - Arrives to work station on time, appropriately groomed, dressed and ready to work; works all scheduled shifts and attends required trainings and meetings. - Provides excellent customer service, addresses needs of customers in a timely and effective manner and models suggestive selling techniques; answers phones and pages promptly and courteously. - Maximizes sales potential through effective and proper procedures for prepping, storing, rotating, stocking, and merchandising product. - Follows and complies, or ensures compliance, with established procedures, including Weights and Measures, health and sanitation, and safe work practices. - Maintains, or ensures maintenance of, a clean and sanitary working and shopping environment; maintains equipment in accordance with WFM cleanliness and safety standards. - Performs opening, mid, and closing duties as assigned; ensures accuracy of signs and pricing. - Immediately reports safety hazards and violations. We need to ensure each as

• . Knowledge, Skills, & Abilities list: - Ability to sell proactively. - Ability to learn basic knowledge of all products carried in department. - Strong attention to detail. - Strong to excellent communication skills and willingness to work as part of a team. - Ability to deliver information in a clear and respectable manner to fellow Team Members, customers, and vendors. - Ability to meet customer service expectations and standards in all interactions with customers, vendors, and Team Members. - Ability to follow directions and procedures; effective time management and organization skills. - Passion for natural foods and the mission of Whole Foods Market. - Strong work ethic and ability to work in a fast-paced environment with a sense of urgency. - Understanding of and compliance with WFM quality goals. Desired Work Experiences: "No prior retail experience required." That's a qualification. Could be a

  or

  • . We'll treat as a qualification list maybe. Physical Requirements / Working Conditions list: - Must be able to lift 50 pounds. - In an 8-hour work day: standing/walking 6-8 hours. - Hand use: single grasping, fine manipulation, pushing and pulling. - Work requires the following motions: bending, twisting, squatting and reaching. - Exposure to FDA approved cleaning chemicals. - Exposure to temperatures: 90 degrees Fahrenheit. - Ability to work in wet and dry conditions. - Ability to work a flexible schedule including nights, weekends, and holidays as needed. - Ability to use tools and equipment, including knives, box cutters, electric pallet jacks, and other heavy machinery. - May require use of ladders. Note: The flexible schedule also appears in schedule section; but we can keep it here or move to Schedule. To avoid duplication, we could keep schedule separate and remove from Physical Requirements. However the instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. If we remove it from Physical Requirements, we lose that detail unless we put it elsewhere. We could keep it in both places? That would be duplication, which we should remove duplicated lines. So we need to decide where to place it. The schedule info is also explicitly mentioned under Physical Requirements / Working Conditions. But we also have a separate schedule mention: "Ability to work a flexible schedule including nights, weekends, and holidays as needed." That's the same line. So we can either put it under Schedule section and remove from Physical Requirements, or keep it under Physical Requirements and not have a separate Schedule section. The rule: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe combine schedule into Physical Requirements? But we also have Pay and Benefits sections. The schedule info is substantive; we could create a Schedule section with that line. However then we would have duplicate if we also keep it in Physical Requirements. We should remove duplicate. So we can keep schedule line only under Schedule section, and remove it from Physical Requirements list. That way we preserve the info once. Thus Physical Requirements list will exclude the flexible schedule line. Now Pay section: wage range $17.00-$25.40 Hourly, commensurate with experience. We'll include that as

    . Benefits section: details: Whole Foods Market offers "Whole Benefits". Whole Benefits offers a wide range of benefits for Full and Part-Time Team Members, including eligibility for a store discount, paid time off, financial wellness, health & wellness support programs, and access to other Team Member perks. Eligibility for Whole Benefits is determined under the terms of the applicable Whole Benefits plan at a person’s date of hire and may vary based on work location, length of service, and job type (such as regular or seasonal). Click here for benefit details. New entry level Team Members who successfully complete their first 90-days of employment and who remain actively employed in an eligible role, may be eligible for a base rate increase after their 90-day anniversary. We should preserve all that. However we must remove boilerplate like "Click here for benefit details." That's a link instruction; maybe considered boilerplate? It's not EEO etc. It's a call to action; could be considered application instruction? It's not exactly application instruction but it's a link. The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. "Click here for benefit details." is like a navigation instruction; could be considered navigation. Safer to remove it. We'll keep the rest. Thus Benefits section prose: Whole Foods Market offers "Whole Benefits". Whole Benefits offers a wide range of benefits for Full and Part-Time Team Members, including eligibility for a store discount, paid time off, financial wellness, health & wellness support programs, and access to other Team Member perks. Eligibility for Whole Benefits is determined under the terms of the applicable Whole Benefits plan at a person’s date of hire and may vary based on work location, length of service, and job type (such as regular or seasonal). New entry level Team Members who successfully complete their first 90-days of employment and who remain actively employed in an eligible role, may be eligible for a base rate increase after their 90-day anniversary. Now Schedule section: Ability to work a flexible schedule including nights, weekends, and holidays as needed. Now we need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown. We'll structure:
