Screwfix To Create 400 Warehouse Jobs In Cheshire

Trade retailer Screwfix is to create 400 new full or part time warehouse jobs in Cheshire.

Screwfix has again partnered up with supply chain and logistics specialist Wincanton to open a sixth distribution centre in Daresbury, located between Warrington and Runcorn in North West England.

The new distribution hub should be ready for action within the next three months, creating hundreds of jobs for the region.

Announcing the recruitment drive, Screwfix’s director of supply chain and logistics, Dan Monaghan, said: “We are delighted to be working with Wincanton in opening a sixth distribution centre in Daresbury and the creation of 400 jobs in the north-west.

“The new site will ensure we have the logistics infrastructure to support our store expansion plan, Click and Collect service and ‘Screwfix Sprint’ our latest hyper convenience proposition.

“With 98% of the UK population within a 30-minute drive of a Screwfix store the latest site will ensure we can continue to provide our customers with the convenience and certainty they need. I would like to thank all our colleagues for their continued support,” added Mr Monaghan.

Wincanton’s chief operating officer, Ian Keilty, also commented, saying: “We’re excited to be part of Screwfix’s continued growth. Our strong and growing relationship is evidence of Wincanton’s ability to support the changing needs of our customers.”

“We are looking forward to further honouring our commitment to add value to Screwfix's delivery and service proposition,” said Mr Keilty.

Recruitment is already underway for the new site, with Wincanton advertising vacancies for warehouse staff such as stock clerks and drivers.

Screwfix now boasts over 760 stores nationwide and provides jobs for more than 8,800 people in full and part time roles across the United Kingdom and Ireland.

If you are interested in any of the jobs on offer with Wincanton at the new Screwfix facility then there’s an open day for the vacancies on Wednesday 9th March (2022) at the Screwfix centre in Runcorn’s Manor Park.

The event will start at 10am in the morning and will run through until 3 o’clock in the afternoon.
