If you want to work at Mercadona, start with its corporate careers channel. Mercadona has a revamped careers platform where candidates create a profile and can specify their preferences for location, working hours and type of role. Do not confuse old job listings with current ones or reuse the previous process, which required applicants to enter their details again for every application.
This Kurriku guide brings together the steps to submit your CV to Mercadona, explore career areas, check requirements and prepare your application without assuming that vacancies which may have expired are still open.
Important: Kurriku is an independent information resource and does not recruit for this company. Check roles and conditions through the official channel before submitting personal data.

Mercadona's official careers website
For information on active recruitment processes and their requirements, refer to Mercadona's careers website. Do not assume that an old recruitment campaign is still open or that all locations follow the same recruitment policy.
Company procedure: You can create a profile on Mercadona’s Avature portal, upload your CV, set your job preferences and track your applications. The company may consider your profile even if you have not applied for a specific vacancy, provided your preferences are a good fit. Interviews and assessments depend on the role.
What jobs can you find at Mercadona?
The following are professional areas linked to the group’s activities and talent channels. This is not a list of vacancies currently open; open the job adverts to see what opportunities are available.
Supermarket staff and customer service
Store roles may include working on the tills, shelf replenishment, direct customer service, and tasks related to the store’s different sections and services.
In any case, check the exact job title, location, contract type and required skills so you do not confuse vacancies in different departments.
Logistics centres and warehouses
Logistics centres require different profiles from stores, with duties such as preparing orders, handling goods and organising operations. Tasks depend on the job advert.
In any case, check the exact job title, location, contract type and required skills so you do not confuse vacancies in different departments.
Mercadona online and delivery
E-commerce operations need professionals to prepare and deliver shopping orders, coordinate orders and support last-mile tasks when vacancies are available.
In any case, check the exact job title, location, contract type and required skills so you do not confuse vacancies in different departments.
Mercadona IT and offices
The company has technology teams and corporate departments. These roles should not be confused with operational supermarket jobs, as they have their own profiles and responsibilities.
In any case, check the exact job title, location, contract type and required skills so you do not confuse vacancies in different departments.
Requirements for working at Mercadona
There is no single list of requirements that applies to all employees. When reviewing a job advert, pay attention to the following aspects:
- Customer service, communication skills and a willingness to work as part of a store team if you are applying for this area.
- Check your availability, location and preferred working hours before accepting interviews.
- For logistics roles, check whether they require experience, certifications or specific training.
- For technology roles, include programming languages, tools or relevant experience only if they are related to the job advert.
- Complete your profile on the company platform with verified contact details and genuine preferences.
These recommendations should not be interpreted as mandatory requirements for every vacancy. If a qualification is essential, the job description should say so. Do not claim to have languages, permits or experience that you do not have.
Mercadona’s recruitment process and possible interviews
On Mercadona’s Avature portal, you can create a profile, upload your CV, record your work preferences and track your applications. The company may consider your profile even if you have not applied for a specific vacancy, if your preferences are a good match. Interviews and tests depend on the role.
After submitting an application, your profile may be reviewed, and you may be invited to interviews or technical tests, depending on the role. To prepare for an interview, choose verifiable examples of tasks you have carried out, results, teamwork and problem-solving that are relevant to the position.
Pay, shifts and working conditions
It is not possible to give a single salary figure for all employees. Contract conditions vary between store, logistics, delivery and technology roles, and also depend on working hours. Always check the pay stated in the current vacancy instead of reusing figures from earlier press releases.
Regarding salary: it is not reliable to use a single figure for every role in the company. Check the gross salary, working hours, additional payments, collective bargaining agreement, contract type and work location whenever this information is provided in the vacancy or recruitment process. Do not confuse estimates from external websites with a contractual offer.
Mercadona’s new careers portal: what has changed
Since July 2025 the application system has allowed users to maintain a profile so the company can suggest opportunities that match their preferences. You can update your details and check the status of recruitment processes. If you saved links to the old portal, go to the current official website to avoid outdated forms.
How to tailor your CV for Mercadona
If you are looking for a supermarket job, prioritise genuine experience in customer service, sales, checkout work, shelf replenishment and organisation. If you have no experience, describe skills gained through work placements or activities that you can demonstrate. Do not use the same CV for technology and retail roles.
- Use a professional headline that matches the role you are applying for.
- Start by describing experience and projects relevant to the vacancy.
- Include tools, education, languages and verifiable certificates when they add value.
- Highlight specific examples of results or responsibilities, without making up figures.
- Check that your phone number, email address and city are correct, and that the file is easy to read.
If the application process allows you to attach an additional explanation, you can also prepare a brief cover letter tailored to the role.
Mistakes that could harm your application
- Sending exactly the same CV for roles with different responsibilities.
- Not checking the location or country of the role before applying.
- Assuming that requirements listed in an old vacancy or one from another company are mandatory.
- Sharing personal information through messages or domains that cannot be verified.
- Claiming to know tools, processes or languages that you cannot demonstrate your knowledge of.
- Accepting an offer without checking the contracting organisation, working hours and conditions.
