Screwfix Driving Forward Republic Of Ireland Expansion
Screwfix, the omnichannel retailer, is driving forward its expansion in the Republic of Ireland, with the aim of helping even more busy tradespeople get their jobs done quickly, affordably, and right first time and create jobs in local communities.
With a customer and colleague focused vision, Screwfix is committed to opening even more new stores in the Republic of Ireland and creating new jobs in 2023.
Counting over 30 stores across the country, including Dublin, Limerick and Cork, with over 450 jobs created, Screwfix is actively recruiting for roles, including Assistant Managers, Supervisors and Retail Assistants. Colleagues at Screwfix can benefit from extensive training and development opportunities, with over 50 colleagues currently training in areas such as retail management.
With more branches opened in 2022 than ever before, stores play a key part in Screwfix’s omnichannel customer journey.
Scott Parsons, Operations Director at Screwfix, says: “We opened our first Screwfix store in Ireland in 2019 and have continued to expand at a fast pace ever since.
“Our colleagues in store are vital to the business’ success, they thrive in providing customers with the ultimate convenience, alongside building a deep bond with the local community.
“Our expansion in the country is testimony to the business’ serious intention to get even closer to busy tradespeople and we are keen to achieve Screwfix’s next milestones with people at the heart of what we do.”

Screwfix’s growth plans are supported by Kingfisher, the retailer’s parent company, whose ‘Powered by Kingfisher’ strategy aims to maximise the benefits of combining its distinct retail banners with the scale, strength, and expertise of the Group.
