2 Sisters to add 100 jobs at Derby plant
2 Sisters Food Group planned to create 100 new jobs “across all levels” at its Derby factory last month (January 8), just over a year after rescuing the site from administration.
The poultry giant had already added 500 jobs after buying the facility from Asian ready meals specialist S&A Foods in December 2015 – after it fell into administration.
Geoff Allison, site director at 2 Sisters Derby, said the extra jobs would become available across all levels of the business as the site grew to fulfil its production capability and moved from single to double shift patterns.
“From my experience, young people often don’t see the food industry as their first choice for a career, but we can offer a wide range of exciting job opportunities,” said Allison.
“Equally, we are looking for more experienced people to upskill our team and drive the business forward.”
