Aldi is set to create almost 3,000 new jobs, both permanent and temporary, ahead of the festive period.

Store Assistants earn a minimum hourly rate of up to £10.50 nationally and £11.95 inside the M25.

In addition to these positions, there are also 850 roles across its 11 Regional Distribution Centres, including a number of permanent roles such as Warehouse Selectors, Logistics Assistants and Lorry Drivers.

As a perk for Aldi employees, they are the only supermarket in the UK to offer paid breaks, which for the average store worker is now worth more than £830 a year.
