Thousands of jobs created by Domino’s

Pizza chain Domino’s is to recruit 5,000 new workers in the next few months.

Jobs are being created for in-store staff and delivery drivers at its 1,400 stores across the UK and Ireland between now and Christmas.

The company said its research showed how jobs often seen as short-term can provide valuable experience, transferable skills and opportunities for longer-term progression.

Domino’s said nine in 10 of its store managers started out as an in-store team member or driver.

Sarah Barron, chief commercial and operating officer at Domino’s, said: “Across our stores we see first-hand that there is no single route into a successful career. These findings are not a rejection of university, which remains the right choice for many, but a reminder that there is more than one route to a successful career.

“People join Domino’s at different stages of their working lives. Some are looking for a first job or seasonal role, some want flexible work that fits around other commitments, and others are looking for a career change, a return to work or an opportunity to build practical business and leadership skills on the job.

“Some stay for a few months while others discover a longer-term career and progress through the business into management and senior roles.”
