The coffee chain has launched a recruitment drive to fill hundreds of roles as lockdown rules continue to loosen
Starbucks is hiring now as it gears-up for a busy summer as lockdown rules continue to loosen.
The firm has hundreds of roles up for grabs, including some in Coventry.
Starbucks is recruiting across almost 200 sites and they include city-centre, suburban high street and drive-thru locations, WalesOnline reports.
The company says it is creating 400 roles on the back of being buoyed by the easing of pandemic restrictions.
Starbucks, which was founded in Seattle 50 years ago, said it is recruiting new staff members across the UK in anticipation of a busy summer period.
The company said it did not make any redundancies or take furlough support after the pandemic struck its UK operations.
It said its new hiring plans will primarily fill “natural vacancies” from staff choosing to leave the business who were not replaced while it was hit by the impact of the pandemic.
Starbucks, which currently employs 3,664 staff across the UK, said some roles will also be in drive-thru locations.
The chain expanded its drive-thru and delivery options to meet customer demand as dine-in options were restricted by public health policy.
