SIGNS have gone up in the window of the old Tesco store in Devizes advertising for Poundland staff.
The notices appeared this weekend on Poundland headed paper asking for people interested in roles from managers to sales assistants to get in touch.
Last month the Gazette revealed Poundland was advertising for a manager for a new store in Devizes but the company declined to confirm it was coming to the town.
Instead a statement said the cut price store was looking at a number of new acquisitions.
People have taken to social media to welcome Poundland to Devizes. A number said that while Poundland might not be their preferred trader it was better to have a new tenant in the large building in Maryport Street.
