The UK’s fifth largest supermarket is looking for Store Assistants in its Clay Cross store and also the Bakewell store, which is due to open in early 2019.

Aldi was crowned Grocer of the Year 2018 at the prestigious Grocer Gold awards, which recognised the discount supermarket as having one of the best working environments in the sector, alongside giving all colleagues a significantly higher rate of hourly pay, compared to that offered by most other British supermarkets. The majority of colleagues at Aldi now receive a minimum rate of £8.85 per hour, regardless of their age, following significant sustained sales growth and store expansion. All colleagues will benefit from rising salaries during their careers with Aldi, with Store Assistants earning £10.41 per hour, after just three years.
