Quality Assurance Assistant
5 months ago
This is about putting our products through their paces. After all, only the best will do.
Our products go through rigorous tests before hitting our shelves. First off, we need to assess if they meet both legal and safety requirements. After that it's down to quality. It means you'll organise panels for testing, co-ordinate meetings with suppliers and put in place the processes and procedures that help us make well-informed purchasing decisions.
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. Naturally, the products we select for these stores are central to our success. And Quality Assurance is an essential part of this winning formula.
Aldi’s own brand is at the heart of our business model. We are committed to delivering on quality at a great price to our customers at a time they need this more than ever.
As a Quality Assurance Assistant, you will be responsible for maintaining an external portal which holds all our product information. We are looking for a person who can work independently with accuracy at a fast pace, solve problems and be a confident communicator. This is a key support role for Buying, Regions and the Quality team. Being a team player will mean you naturally fit well with our Aldi culture.
You will need to demonstrate that you can pro-actively manage your area of responsibility and assist in developing and maintaining quality management systems. You will be instrumental in making changes to ways of working, procedures, and documentation to improve efficiency - a core value to ALDI.
