Apache, an Irish pizza business with 180 locations around the country, is to hire 500 people as part of an all-island roadshow leading up to Christmas.
Over the next few weeks, the National Recruitment Roadshow will visit cities and universities to fill the posts as rapidly as feasible.
On December 7, the brand will bring its roadshow to Waterloo Place in Derry, Northern Ireland. While the exact number of jobs to be filled on this side of the border has not been verified, it is expected that new positions will be created across the company's 37 locations. The 500 new opportunities include permanent, full-time, and part-time positions for general managers, supervisors, team members, and delivery drivers, and the company claims that they offer flexible working conditions, full training, and career progression.
The 500 new positions come after it announced the launch of 20 additional stores earlier this year, which resulted in 300 new jobs.
"We are delighted to create such a large number of jobs and to provide people with an immediate opportunity to join Apache Pizza, to secure local employment, and to develop and advance their career with us as we continue to grow and expand across the island of Ireland," said Crispin McLoughlin, chief operating officer at Apache Pizza.
Each roadshow lasts from 10 a.m. until 3 p.m.
