Birstall-based bathroom retailer revealed plans to create between 250 to 300 jobs next year.

Easy Bathrooms is set to increase its workforce by 60 to 70 per cent in 2021 in response to soaring customer demand.

In the last year, the firm opened 23 showrooms. It now has 65 stores nationwide, and turned over £45m in the last year; a 36 per cent increase on 2019.

It also doubled staff levels to 420 employees. Now, the latest round of recruitment will support the firm’s 2021 growth plans, in which it intends to further, significantly increase its national foot- print.

The brand expects that by the end of 2021, it will have 90 to 95 showrooms, and has already signed leases on 17 new stores – signalling a £2m investment.

Earlier this month, the firm also moved its Wakefield store to a new superstore.

Having previously rented a space within a tile shop, the move to its own, 13,000 sq ft store at Beck Retail Park allows the firm to display its own range of tiles within a dedicated studio.”

Craig Waddington, founder of Easy Bathrooms, said: “2020 has been a pivotal year at Easy Bathrooms, having opened 23 showrooms during a global pandemic, while doubling our work- force.

“We’re gearing up for a strong 2021, with some exciting plans in the pipeline, so having the right team in place is incredibly important to us.”

Easy Bathrooms is set to hire across all areas of the business. The vacancies will include roles for sales, warehouse and logistics workers.
