Looking for work? Here are some of the jobs going at North East supermarkets

Sainsbury’s has committed to paying staff well above both the national living wage and voluntary “real” living wage by raising the basic rate by £1.20 an hour.

From September, staff in the North East will get paid at least £9.20 an hour, which means Sainsbury’s employees will have the highest basic pay of supermarket employees.

Currently, Aldi is the top payer with a basic rate of £8.85.

Hopefully, other supermarkets will soon follow their lead.

We’ve had a browse of which jobs are on offer at major supermarkets in our region.

They include some roles at Sainsbury’s in Northumberland.
