Joining three further UK sites in the pipeline for 2018, the new fulfilment centre in Rugby will create 400 new permanent jobs including operations managers, engineers, HR and IT specialists. The company said recruitment for the team in Rugby will begin in the coming weeks.

“We are delighted to expand our operations in the Midlands where we already have a dedicated workforce of more than 2,500 people at fulfilment centres in Rugeley, Coalville and Daventry,” said Stefano Perego, Amazon’s Director of UK Customer Fulfilment.

“We are thrilled to begin recruitment for 400 new permanent roles in Rugby with competitive wages and comprehensive benefits starting on day one.”

Rugby will be the fourth Amazon fulfilment centre in the Midlands, and continue the company’s expansion drive across the UK amid increasing customer demand. In addition to expanding its e-commerce fulfilment capabilities, it will be used to expand the retailer’s product selection.

This year will see the opening of new fulfilment centres in Bristol, Bolton and Coventry, with the latter being the first dedicated UK receive centre, acting as a central hub to receive and sort millions of products sold on Amazon.co.uk each year.

Amazon has invested £6.4 billion on UK-based research, and fulfilment and logistics infrastructure in the UK since 2010. The company has currently 16 fulfilment centres across the nation.
