“As well as healthcare and lifestyle perks, being a part of the Aldi team means a great working environment.
“With it being an exciting time for the business, there are also real opportunities to progress.”

The retailer aims to increase its UK store portfolio to 1,200 stores by 2025. It currently has about 1,000 sites, meaning it will need to open 60 new locations a year on average.
