In October, Amazon announced plans to create 1,200 permanent jobs at a new fulfilment centre in Bolton planned to open next year.

Amazon has started recruiting for a range of new roles for the fulfilment centre, including operations managers, engineers, human resources and IT specialists.
Stefano Perego, Amazon’s director of UK customer fulfilment, said: “Our ability to expand in the north west of England is the result of two things: incredible customers and an outstanding workforce.
“We are thrilled to begin recruitment for 1,200 new permanent roles in Bolton with competitive wages and comprehensive benefits starting on day one.”
