Job description

Supporting the team, you will take responsibility for managing third party logistics providers to maximise the availability of our products into the distribution centres and stores.

In conjunction with key stakeholders, you will be responsible for delivering a high quality and cost efficient inbound supply chain both through operational and project management. You will be working as part of a growing and developing supply chain team, looking for continuous improvement within your role to simplify processes and maximise efficiencies.

We do things our 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 without our National Supply Chain team, there'd simply be no products in those stores.


Are you looking for a role that will challenge you whilst also giving you the chance to grow and develop in a secure environment?

We have an exciting new opportunity to join Aldi as a Logistics Project Deployment Assistant. The Aldi AHEAD project is our global transformation initiative which aims to revolutionise our systems and processes. Each department is undergoing a series of changes to legacy structures that will enable our business to operate in the efficient ways our industry demands.

In our Country Deployment role, you will be stationed in the Logistics Domain working specifically on our new Transportation Management System - SAP TM. You will be required to upskill yourself in our new system whilst working closely with our National Supply Chain Management team to build and design a robust, user-friendly system.

As part of this role, you will frequently be required to find the balance between what the business requires and what is technically viable by working closely with our Central Team counterparts in Germany as well as our National IT colleagues based here in Atherstone.

This role is situated at the forefront of shaping Aldi’s long term Logistics strategy and will play a major part in maintaining high availability in our stores

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!
