Four branches will open in November, taking the total number of Waitrose shops opened in 2012 to 20 and the number of people recruited through shop openings to more than 2,000 during the year.
Waitrose is also about to begin the recruitment of over 90 management roles for its 30 acre Regional Distribution Centre (RDC) in Leyland, Lancashire (UK). The site, Waitrose’s fifth RDC, will ultimately create over 300 roles when it opens in the summer and drive Waitrose’s expansion in the North of England and Scotland.
The process of hiring for management roles, which include specialist and support roles such as warehouse and transport managers, catering and maintenance, will continue through to the spring. The recruitment of 200 plus non-management positions, such as drivers and warehouse Partners, is set to start in late January.
