Lidl said it is one of the fastest growing supermarkets in the country, claiming over 1.5m new customers switching to the budget supermarket over the past year.
Nan Gibson, of Lidl GB, said: "We’re incredibly proud of our amazing colleagues across the country, whose hard work and loyalty mean that we are the fastest growing supermarket, with over 1.5m more people shopping with us than last year. As our customer base continues to grow, and as we open more new stores and warehouses, we need more people to join team Lidl.
"Not only will new colleagues be the highest paid in the industry as a result of our newly increased rates, they also be part of an amazing team of people that are working to help make good food accessible to all households, at a time that is so needed."
