Appealing specifically for jobs in the supply chain department, Aldi is hoping to hire for roles including administrator, analyst and manager.
With starting salaries varying between £22,980 and £81,415 depending on the job applied for, each role includes a range of benefits from the company pension to private employee medical insurance.
The UK’s fifth largest supermarket, Aldi which already has over 960 stores across the UK, is hoping to continue its expansion and grow its market share which is currently at 9%, according to Kantar data.
The retailers ‘rapid’ expansion – which has been continuous in recent years – saw Aldi looking to create 2,000 new jobs in 2022 in addition to 7,000 created in the two years prior, as part of a £1.3 billion investment drive.
The news comes as Aldi follows in the footsteps of Asda, renaming its ‘feminine hygiene’ signage in store with ‘period products’.
The move follows the ‘feminine hygiene’ label being criticised for being a gendered term and stigmatising periods.
