National Buying Administration Assistant Atherstone, England
Job description
Our buying teams - if it's possible - have to move even quicker than the rest of the business.
And they have to keep ahead of our customers too: second-guessing what they want and need before they do. As a Buying Administration Assistant you will support both the Buying Assistants and Buying Directors to stay ahead of the game, providing comprehensive and professional administrative support. If you are considering a career in buying, this could be the perfect first step.
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. And to keep on top of that wave, our buying teams have to do something pretty special to keep our customers coming back for more.
A role has become available within our National Buying Team as an Administration Assistant on a 23-month fixed term contract.
You will be responsible for ensuring all data housed within the current systems is accurate, relevant, and formatted correctly. Alongside this, you will also be required to provide ad-hoc administrative support to the wider business to ensure all data and record-keeping meets the required standards. You will work closely and form effective working relationships with GB/IE colleagues across all departments and the ALDI global network.
