Alcampo plans to welcome more than 900 new employees as part of its Christmas campaign, with 50 openings specifically in the Canary Islands. The goal is to strengthen stores and logistics to meet the seasonal demand. The recruitment push centers on filling roles across the chain, including store operations, supply chain support, and customer service positions such as traditional cashiers and payment specialists. The hiring process will begin toward the end of October and will roll out gradually, aligning with the staffing needs of each location.
The distribution of vacancies by region shows Madrid receiving the largest share, roughly 160 roles, followed by around 120 positions spread across Andalusia, Catalonia, and Aragon. The Valencian Community, the Basque Country, and Galicia are each expected to host between 60 and 70 openings. About 50 roles are anticipated in the Canary Islands, with approximately 20 opportunities in Asturias, the Balearic Islands, Castilla-La Mancha, Castilla y León, Murcia, Navarra, and La Rioja.
In typical fashion, the available roles will be announced publicly through the company’s careers portal, Work with Us, hosted on the corporate site. Applicants will find vacancies posted as they become available, along with details on the responsibilities, required qualifications, and the application steps. The brand emphasizes a straightforward application process designed to attract local talent aligned with seasonal needs.

Notes from the recruitment drive indicate a practical approach: store managers will determine exact staffing requirements as the Christmas campaign approaches, and hires will proceed in a staged manner to match store traffic, promotions, and stock levels. This method helps the chain maintain optimal staffing while offering local job opportunities across diverse communities.
