Oswestry Jobcentre works with The Range as 30 staff recruited
Oswestry Jobcentre has been supporting The Range on recruitment for its new store which is set to open next month.
The firm, which sells home, leisure and garden equipment, signed a 15-year lease on Oswestry’s former Morrison’s building on Station Road in September.
It has confirmed that the store will open on December 8, and Louise Johnson, partnership manager for Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin at the Department for Work and Pensions, said jobs teams had been supporting recruitment.
"Over two days of high activity more than 80 people had interviews," she said.
"And 30 job offers have already been made. The Range are contacting successful candidates directly."
She added that a careers fair will be taking place at Shrewsbury Jobcentre on November 29.
