H-E-B is hiring hundreds of workers for its newest North Texas grocery store
Hundreds of new H-E-B jobs are up for grabs in North Texas.
The Texas-based grocery chain will host a hiring fair for its new McKinney location on Tuesday, Feb. 28.
H-E-B McKinney is scheduled to open this summer on the northeast corner of Custer Road and Eldorado Parkway. The store will hire 700 full- and part-time employees.
Prospective employees must complete an online application before arriving at Tuesday’s career fair on H-E-B’s careers page. The hiring fair is from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Collin College Conference Center at 2400 Community Ave. in McKinney.
With starting hourly roles at $15 an hour, positions are open in several H-E-B departments including checkers, bakery, produce, catering, seafood, deli, market, seafood, catering, True Texas BBQ restaurant and more.
Employees get a 10% H-E-B discount and have access to a 401(k) plan with a 4% company match; health, vision and dental insurance; an employee stock plan; and annual pay reviews.
Last week, H-E-B opened its first multi-level store in Austin, a few years after opening two-story locations in San Antonio and Houston. It remains to be seen if North Texas could ever get its own multi-level H-E-B.
H-E-B began construction in November on its new Alliance store in far north Fort Worth at Heritage Trace Parkway and North Riverside Drive. H-E-B Alliance is expected to open in spring 2024.
The grocery chain also broke ground on a second Tarrant County store in Mansfield in February. The store at U.S. 287 and Broad Street is also slated to open in 2024.
H-E-B has more than 400 locations in Texas and Mexico and achieved $34 billion in sales. It is the largest private employer in Texas with more than 145,000 employees across the state.
H-E-B is known for its clean stores, quality of produce and wide variety of private-label brands, customers say. H-E-B’s success lies largely in its hyper-local marketing strategy, meaning the company tailors its product offerings towards the local community. In other words, no two H-E-B’s are exactly the same.
For a look at why Texans are so obsessed with H-E-B, here are some of the secrets behind the grocery chain’s success.
