The supermarket said “successful applicants will have the chance to gain industry-recognised qualifications while they earn and will also be eligible for a number of additional benefits,” including discounts, a bike to work scheme and free mortgage advice.
The apprenticeship scheme forms part of the supermarket’s nationwide expansion drive, which saw 6,000 new roles across the UK in total last year.
Aldi UK learning and development director Lisa Murphy said: “We’re on the lookout for hardworking and driven individuals to bolster our Aldi team.
“By joining our apprenticeship scheme, individuals will become experts in their role and receive in-depth skills training at one of the fastest-growing retailers in the country.
“The apprentices of today are the leaders of tomorrow, so we’re always on the hunt for more amazing individuals from all backgrounds to join our team.”
