Value fashion retailer Peacocks looks set to come to Ripon after advertising for staff on a number of websites.
The company, which sells men’s, women’s and children’s clothing, has advertised vacancies for a Ripon store manager, assistant store manager and sales assistant, on the Indeed recruitment site.
The store manager advert, which can also be found on the SimplyHired and Retail Human Resources) sites said:
“Here at Peacocks we have a fantastic opportunity for a store manager based in our new store in Ripon.
“If you would like to be part of a forward-thinking business and have a job with excellent career prospects, we would love to hear from you.”
When approached today by the Stray Ferret, Peacocks’ head office in Cardiff would not say when they will be opening in the city, how many people they will employ and which vacant unit they will be taking.
However, a hint towards a possible Ripon location came last month when the retailer opened a store at premises in Market Place, Driffield, previously occupied by M&Co, which went into administration in December.
The former M&Co unit on Fishergate closed in April and later that month specialist retail publication Drapers Online reported that Peacocks was aiming to take 20 stores from the M&Co estate.
