Sunderland, England, Sept, 2019 -- The Ocado Group, has launched a recruitment drive that will see it create up to 300 new jobs in Sunderland, as the business takes up the first space at THE BEAM, the flagship building on what was the city’s former Vaux brewery site.
And now, Ocado is looking to fill the first 30 positions for contact centre advisors and managers, with a series of events due to be held in the city.
The company has signed a deal to let the top two floors of the building for 15 years.
Ocado Group is aiming to have its Sunderland operation up and running before the end of 2019 and plans to have people in post by November.
