Lidl supermarket chain announces 200 new jobs in Northern Ireland
The supermarket chain Lidl has announced it is creating 200 new jobs in Northern Ireland.
The jobs will be based at Lidl's regional distribution centre in Nutts Corner, County Antrim, with additional roles created in superstores. Recruitment for the jobs, which include positions in warehouse operations, logistics and management, are set to begin in April.Last year, the company committed to matching the Real Living Wage hourly rate, which currently stands at £10.90 per hour."Our People Strategy focuses on ensuring we offer the most competitive benefits package in the industry," said Maeve McCleane, the supermarket's chief people officer.
"This includes competitive salaries, dedicated training and development and a comprehensive suite of industry-leading benefits which support our employees throughout all stages of their lives and careers with us." It comes as inflation, or the rate at which prices are rising, is slowing but at 10.5% remains close to a 40-year high.
