Lidl Northern Ireland is launching a recruitment drive to hire 100 permanent new retail roles across its network of stores.
Taking place on Saturday November 13, six regional recruitment events will be held across Belfast, Downpatrick, Enniskillen, Newry, Omagh and Portadown to fill a range of in-store roles.
The new jobs announcement follows a wider recruitment drive by Lidl Northern Ireland earlier this year to fill 170 jobs across its regional warehouse and network of 41 stores. Representing an investment of more than £1million in annual salaries, this latest recruitment intake will boost Lidl Northern Ireland’s workforce to more than 1,100 employees.
Recruitment event attendees will have the chance to meet with Lidl Northern Ireland representatives to learn more about the Customer Assistant roles available and the market-leading benefits successful candidates can enjoy with a career at Northern Ireland’s fastest-growing supermarket.
Gordon Cruikshanks, Sales Operations Executive for Lidl Northern Ireland said: “We serve more than 300,000 weekly shoppers across Northern Ireland and as we continue to grow and welcome even more shoppers, we’re on the lookout for motivated candidates to join our friendly store teams.
“Life at Lidl Northern Ireland is fast-paced and challenging but we wouldn’t have it any other way. Our store teams are central to our success — they drive our frontline operations while ensuring excellent customer service and satisfaction.
“A career in retail can be hugely fun and rewarding and we pride ourselves on offering a great rate of pay, fantastic benefits, award-winning training and development programmes and plenty of opportunity for progression. I would encourage anyone considering a move into retail to come along to our recruitment event, meet the team and take the first step towards a fulfilling career with one of Northern Ireland’s top companies.”
Supported by industry-leading training, candidates can benefit from excellent opportunities for development and long-term career prospects. Additional perks include competitive hourly rates of up to £14 per hour, supplementary pay, unlimited flexibility and 10-30 hour contracts.
