Hemel Hempstead Job Vacancies

Companies are always on the lookout for good sales people and a large number of them are based on Hemel's Maylands Business Park, one of the largest in Europe. Many opportunities for careers in sales may be found at local companies on the Maylands site, such as Epson and HSBC.

Large local employers, such as DSG International (Dixons) and British Telecom, are likely to be good sources of administrative jobs. Dacorum Borough Council and Hemel Hempstead Hospital are also significant employers with public administration positions, across the board.

Retail jobs in the town can be found at the Marlowes shopping centre, while the new Riverside development is home to large stores such as Debenhams and HMV. Further retail job opportunities can be found on Hemel Hempstead's two retail parks. Additional shopping and leisure centre developments are planned.

Manufacturing is a key factor in the local economy and a vast range of jobs are based here, in both light and heavy industries. Typical examples are Filipo Berio olive oil, DuPont petrochemicals and Transcend, which manufactures computer drives.

With its excellent location and transport links, this is a good place to look for jobs in the transport, logistics and distribution sectors. Many high profile companies have warehouses here, employing several hundred people. These include a delivery centre for Next clothing, Gist food distribution for M&S and a DHL warehouse.
