Description

Publix Super Markets tops the list of privately-owned supermarkets in the US. We hold no long-term debt and continue to grow year after year. Publix and our associates excel in community involvement, volunteerism, and environmental sustainability. Our collective commitment to diversity has contributed to our success in being a great place to work and shop. It’s satisfying to work for – and be an owner in – a Fortune 100 company that is widely recognized as a leader in the supermarket industry.

The Publix Real Estate Assets team oversees the company’s real estate portfolio including leasing and property management. Within the department, the Real Estate Technology Specialist will deliver projects that introduce new technology, test new and existing technology, provide data & reporting needs, facilitate education & training on technology solutions, and offer first-level support for incidents and problems with existing systems. Ideal candidates have knowledge of data analysis principles with the ability to learn quickly and apply the knowledge given. Additionally, they possess analytical and logical thinking skills, and excellent verbal and written communication.

In Publix’s corporate offices, we value in-person interactions, similar to those our store associates have with customers. Many of Publix’s corporate offices offer work from home up to two days a week. Each business area implements their policy differently and should be discussed during interviews.
