Publix, a Florida-based grocery chain with more than 1,280 stores across seven Southeast states, is looking to add 30,000 employees by the end of 2021.
The popular supermarket chain says its fourth-quarter hiring spree includes positions at its stores, distribution centers and manufacturing facilities. The company didn't specify the starting pay or salary range for new positions. A search on the company's career portal, jobs.publix.com, listed an Orlando warehouse select position â€" which involves pulling products for stores â€" with a base pay of $20.80 to $30 an hour.
Many companies are attempting to bolster their workforce ahead of the holidays, but Publix is among a growing trend of businesses hiring mostly permanent, nonseasonal employees this year. Major retailers like Amazon and Walmart also recently announced hundreds of thousands of new nonseasonal roles for those interested in a gig that could last into 2022 and beyond.
'As we continue to grow, having a dedicated team ready to meet our needs is vitally important,' said Publix Vice President of Human Resources Marcy Benton in a hiring announcement.
Permanent jobs at Publix include some attractive perks, including:
- Employee stock ownership plan that contributes Publix stock to associates each year at no cost to them.
- Annual holiday cash bonuses.
- 401(k) with a company match.
- Group health plan (with prescription benefits), dental plan and vision plan.
- Free flu shots.
- Tuition reimbursement benefits.
Publix encourages, but doesn't require, new employees to be vaccinated against COVID-19. Associates who get the vaccine can receive a $125 Publix gift card.
Many corporate positions â€" including system analysts, software engineers and marketing developers â€" are located at the company's headquarters in Lakeland, Florida. You can search for jobs by entering your city or zip code. You can also browse jobs that match your LinkedIn profile.

Publix is among the fastest growing conventional supermarket operators in the United States, according to Supermarket Business. In September, Publix announced plans to expand its reach further by opening stores in Kentucky by 2023.
