Aldi will hold a job fair for positions at its forthcoming Buckhead store on April 30.

The German grocery chain is looking for store associates and shift managers. The positions start at a wage of $12 per hour, with the potential for a raise after six months of work; shift managers earn an additional $4.50 per hour premium when performing manager duties.

The Aldi is slated to open in a 42,361-square-foot space at Buckhead Pavilion, which formerly housed a Sports Authority, according to a 2017 press release.

The new store is expected to open this summer, ALDI Jefferson Division Vice President Shaun O’Keefe said.
