Register Your Interest - National IT Placement (Stores Support)

Are you looking for a Placement where you will be in the thick of the action from the start? Here at Aldi, you will get exactly that, as you experience a year like no other. Gaining real responsibility and making an impact from day one. This is your chance to join one of the market-leading retailers and Times Top 100 employers, learning the ‘ins and outs’ of National IT.

This is a fantastic opportunity to kickstart your career and be inspired by a company that means more

The role of the National IT Stores Support Team (SST) Placement is to work as part of a team to deliver Everyday Amazing IT Support to our expanding business, this will include work in both the Vendor Management and direct Stores Support arms of the SST.

As we have introduced increasing complexity into our Store IT estate at the same time as our Stores becoming busier than ever, we need to give our Store teams the best possible support by ‘keeping the lights on’ for their systems so that they can focus on giving great service to our customers.

With well over 70,000 pieces of IT hardware in our estate and our tills and back-office systems in constant use, it is natural that things wear out, fail or need user support - your job will be to help deliver smooth and effective incident management so that the impact on our staff and customers is kept to a minimum.

As an SST Placement, you will have responsibility for second line support. All our store IT support requests are handled via our Global Service Desk. If they cannot resolve the issue, it will be passed to you and your team; you will attempt to resolve those issues yourself, and if not pass to the relevant third-level technical teams - but crucially, all the way through you will give amazing communications and service to the stores so that they know what is going on with their issue.

You will report to a Stores Support Team Leader, work shoulder to shoulder with Global Service Desk agents, other NIT technical teams, and key users within the Store Operation such as Area Managers, to give the best possible support experience for our store staff.

You will also be deeply involved in the Vendor Management arm of the SST and will be helping to manage relationships with key partners of ours to ensure that we are not only getting the most out of them, but we are also being the best partner possible to them.
