Our new Rockville location is tentatively scheduled to open in summer 2025. Employees hired prior to the store opening will be required to train at an existing Wegmans location to gain valuable on-the-job experience. Employees will be asked to commute to and from the training location and will be compensated for additional mileage.

The off-site training will likely take place through June 2025. Training locations will be determined based on position and availability, but may include our Frederick, Germantown and Woodmore locations in Maryland, our Wisconsin Avenue location in Washington, D.C. and our Tysons Corner location in Virginia.

Take your passion for both food and people to the next level when you become a culinary leader at Wegmans. In our people-first kitchens, you’ll lead your team by helping them to fine-tune their culinary skills, grow their careers, and fuel their passion for food. Your people skills, culinary talents, and eye for detail will be essential as you manage day-to-day operations and assist with bottom line profitability. No two days are the same, and an entire store full of fresh, world-class ingredients is your pantry.
