Atherstone, United Kingdom Aldi Full time

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 most. The opportunity to play an integral part in delivering great products for customers is huge and we are committed to accelerating our growth.

As a Quality Assurance Assistant, you will be part of a team that is accountable for making sure that Aldi products meet our high specifications by driving a culture of quality across our supply base. You will have experience in a food manufacturing or food retail food quality environment, liaising with suppliers and Buying teams to communicate on product issues, routine due diligence, customer complaints and continuous improvement.

Important to the role is being a confident communicator with the ability to network at all levels within Aldi. 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. This is a key support role within the Quality Assurance team, and you will be required to operate with pace and leadership. If you have a passion for food safety, quality, and innovation, then this is the role for you.
