Aldi to hire 20 staff in Offaly

ALDI has unveiled its plans to hire more than 20 staff in Offaly. Since opening its first store in the county back in 2007, it now has two stores in the county, in Tullamore and Edenderry.

With 161 operational stores nationwide, including the recently opened Carrigaline, Co. Cork store in December 2023, ALDI continues to expand its workforce, currently employing almost 5,000 people across the country.

The recruitment drive comes on the heels of ALDI's commitment to adopting the recommendation of the Living Wage Technical Group in 2024. This means that from February 1, the starting rate for store assistants and selectors increases to €14.80 per hour and reaffirming ALDI’s dedication to its almost 5,000-strong employees and its commitment to delivering market-leading rates of pay. ALDI is the first supermarket in Ireland to adopt the Living Wage recommendations in 2024.

Brian O’Shea, HR Director at ALDI Ireland, said: "ALDI is dedicated to not only providing exceptional products and services to our customers but also creating a rewarding and supportive environment for our employees. Our commitment to offering market-leading pay, comprehensive benefits, and a focus on employee well-being underscores our belief in nurturing a motivated and fulfilled workforce.”

Recruitment across the country is currently underway for various roles, including positions at new stores as well as filling existing vacancies.
