Aldi on hiring spree with 150 jobs up for grabs across South Devon

Don’t say it too loud, but a South Devon company is looking to hire workers!

Supermarket giants Aldi is actively recruiting 150 store colleagues across South Devon and the rest of the county.

Britain's cheapest supermarket, which already operates more than 1,080 stores, is hiring for a wide range of store positions.

This includes both full-time and part-time positions such as Store Assistants and Cleaners, all the way up to Store Managers, with salaries of up to £69,000.

Stores looking to hire include Newton Abbot.

From April 1 store assistants will earn £13.50 per hour nationally and £14.88 within the M25, rising to £14.47 and £15.20 respectively based on length of service.

This forms part of a £42 million investment in colleague pay in 2026 alone, reinforcing the supermarket’s position as the sector’s pay leader.

Rates exceed those of all other supermarkets, and Aldi remains the only major retailer to offer paid breaks to all colleagues - a benefit worth approximately £1,500 per year to the average store colleague.

Kelly Stokes, recruitment director at Aldi UK, said: “We want to encourage more people across the UK to consider a career in retail, starting with high-quality training and development that gives people the skills and confidence to succeed.

“As we open more stores, we’re creating more opportunities for people to start to build rewarding careers with Aldi. With market-leading pay, clear progression routes and ongoing support, we’re helping more people grow in retail while bringing Aldi’s award-winning, affordable products to more local communities.”
