Primark Prepares for Store Opening: Hiring 100 New Colleagues
Primark is set to open the doors of its new store in Salisbury in September and has kicked off with recruitment of store colleagues as it gets ready for the big day.
The 29,700 sq. ft. store can be found in the Old George Mall in the city centre, in the former BHS unit. Set across two floors, customers will be able to shop the bestselling Primark products they know and love across clothing, kidswear, beauty, lifestyle and home.

The retailer will be recruiting 100 new team members for roles including retail assistants, stockroom colleagues, and visual merchandisers, with start dates as early as August to help get the store ready.
Primark Salisbury store manager Christopher Carter said: “Our construction team has been busy getting the store ready over the last few months, and now it’s time for the next step on our journey. Primark is an amazing place to work and we’re looking forward to welcoming 100 new members to the family over the coming months as we prepare for launch in September. We know that Salisbury shoppers have been eagerly awaiting the opening, so we can’t wait to welcome them to store.”
Primark Salisbury is the retailer’s first new store opening in England in more than two years, and will become Primark’s 192nd in the UK. Its opening is part of Primark’s £140m investment in UK retail as it looks to invest in its stores and give customers even more reasons to visit their local high streets.
