National Buying Office Administrator
7 months ago
As part of our busy and thriving Buying team, you'll help keep everything running smoothly.
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 even they do. Efficient and well organised, your day-to-day will involve organisational work, data processing and analysis.
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, we have to do something pretty special to keep our customers coming back for more.
We have an exciting opportunity available for a Buying Administrator in our Bathgate team where 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.
