Marketing & Communications Manager Atherstone, England
Job description
You'll be our product brand expert, ensuring that the Aldi personality is always unique, powerful and consistent in the marketplace.
Managing a team of Marketing & Communications Assistants, you'll oversee all our product advertising, marketing and PR processes and systems. It's about strategy – advising the business, managing projects and working with independent experts. In this fast-paced role, you'll take on far more responsibility and autonomy than you'd expect elsewhere. That means you need to stay calm under pressure and produce results. But it's also somewhere you have more scope to influence the business. Just the way you like it.
We do things our own way at Aldi. But whatever we're doing, we must be getting it right. With a wave of impressive sales figures behind us, we're opening new stores at lightning speed. Which means our marketing and communications need to keep up.
We now have a fantastic opportunity available for an Internal Communications Manager to join our team at the Aldi Head Office in Atherstone. The position is a fixed term contract to cover a 12-month period.
Working collaboratively with Buying, eCommerce, HR and various other project teams you will be responsible for communicating messages, projects and initiatives to our colleagues in the UK and Ireland.
This is a fantastic opportunity for you to develop within the business and play a key part in shaping the future of Aldi globally. Ready for more? Apply to join #TeamAldi today!
