Aldi has revealed that it expects to create more than 2,000 new jobs across the UK between now and Christmas.
The discounter, which currently has over 920 stores and employs around 38,000 people, is pushing ahead with plans to open more than one store a week this year with new outlets planned for towns and cities such as Canterbury, Swansea and London.
Aldi is seeking store assistants, cleaners, and managers for the new stores. It is also currently recruiting for 900 jobs across its 13 Regional Distribution Centres around the UK, and a further 175 vacancies at its Head Office in Atherstone, Warwickshire.
Meanwhile, Aldi is looking for over 80 graduates to join its next graduate scheme intake, starting from September onwards.
“I am unbelievably proud of our amazing Aldi colleagues, and what they have achieved together over the last year,” said Giles Hurley, Chief Executive Officer of Aldi UK.
“As we continue to invest in new stores, bringing unbeatable Aldi prices to millions of customers, we’re looking for thousands more colleagues to join our incredible teams across the country. I look forward to welcoming each and every one of them in the future.”
