Aldi has announced it is looking to hire 110 store colleagues in Cornwall between now and the end of the year.

In a welcome boost to the local economy, the UK’s fifth-largest supermarket is looking for people of all levels of experience to fill roles at its stores across the region.

This includes both full-time and part-time positions such as store assistant and caretaker roles, all the way up to store manager, with salaries of up to £48,490.

Stores in Cornwall where Aldi is looking to hire include Newquay, Redruth and St Austell.

The recruitment push forms part of Aldi’s nationwide expansion drive, with the supermarket on track to create 2,000 permanent new roles across the UK this year.

Kelly Stokes, Recruitment Director at Aldi UK, said: “As we continue to grow and make Aldi accessible to even more shoppers, we need more amazing colleagues across the country to help make that possible.

“As well as healthcare and lifestyle perks, working at Aldi means a great working environment and real opportunities to progress within the business. We look forward to welcoming even more great people in Cornwall to become a part of our success.”

Last month, Aldi announced a second pay increase this year for its store colleagues, maintaining its position as the UK’s best-paying supermarket.

From September, store colleagues at Aldi will earn an industry-leading minimum hourly rate of £10.50 nationally, and £11.95 inside the M25, with paid breaks included.
