Aldi, 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 in Yorkshire where Aldi is looking to hire include Thirsk, Ripon, and Whitby.
Aldi is currently working on the site of a new £6m store in Commercial Street in Norton, which is set to open later this year.
The company said it will be creating up to 40 full-time equivalent jobs, however these have yet to be advertised.

From 1st April 2026, 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.”
