Meadowhall is continuing its success by attracting two top brands - while one tenant is moving to a larger shop.

Dr. Marten, famous for its ‘Air Wair’ footwear, and Cornish fashion company Sea Salt are advertising jobs on hoardings. Meadowhall bosses say they hope the newcomers will be open by the end of May.

Footlocker is moving to a unit treble the size of its existing one. It is set to open on April 14 and create 15 jobs, as well as moving the existing team, the firm says.

It comes as Zara is believed to be in talks to move to a bigger unit on Park Lane and Frasers is linked to the former Debenhams.

Dr. Martens is advertising for a senior sales assistant for 20 hours-a-week but doesn’t state the salary. Sea Salt Cornwall is advertising for an assistant store manager on £27,000-a-year with perks including uniform allowance, 34 days holiday and 50 per cent staff discount. A supervisor is advertised at £10.71-an-hour for 32-hours-a-week and 31 days holiday.

Footlocker wants part-time salespeople and a full-time shift leader. No salary or perks are disclosed and both jobs involve potentially working ‘nights, weekends, and holidays’.

Darren Pearce, centre director at Meadowhall, said: “We’re always looking for new brands and experiences to bring to the centre and we’ve got some great new additions lined up for the rest of the year. Our recent openings such as Clubhouse have already proven to be a hit with our visitors and we’re looking forward to confirming our latest additions in the coming months.”
