Wal Green - Area Manager, Southern Region

‘I started my career with Norco Rural over thirty-five years ago when I accepted the position of administration clerk in the Grafton store. Since then I have worked in many areas within the store from Merchandise Sales Assistant to inventory ordering and control to Store Manager, all in the Grafton store. I remained in my position as Store Manager for over twenty five years. I recently moved into the role of Area Manager of the Southern Region. This role provides me with the many challenges that come with overseeing fifteen stores, and around sixty-five employees.  

During my career with Norco Rural I have seen it grow into a company that is large enough to offer great career opportunities, such as I have experienced, but also remains focused on the values it encourages in its staff. Norco Rural genuinely cares about each employee and the individual needs of all the members of its team. They offer programs that reward success and celebrate loyalty with special events such as the twenty year long service award ceremony. My thirty five year career with them truly indicates what a great employer they are.'
