Joining Sainsbury's as a Sustainability Initiatives Manager offers a unique chance to significantly influence our environmental objectives and contribute to our commitment to sustainability. As a key member of the Corporate Responsibility team, you will be instrumental in shaping and executing our strategies focused on minimizing food waste and promoting a circular economy. Your role will involve collaborating with various teams and stakeholders to foster innovation and drive sustainable practices throughout our operations and supply chains. This position provides a vibrant and challenging environment where you can deepen your knowledge in environmental stewardship, advocate for sustainable practices, and lead initiatives that positively affect our organization and the broader industry. Become part of our mission to create a more sustainable future and make a lasting impact.
Key Responsibilities
In this role, you will be pivotal in enhancing our strategies related to food waste reduction and circular economy initiatives. Working within the Corporate Responsibility Team, you will engage with diverse stakeholders across our supply chains and operations to fulfill our sustainability goals. Your tasks will include developing and executing the overarching environmental sustainability strategy, with a specific emphasis on food waste management and circularity. You will oversee the food waste and redistribution program, collaborating closely with retail and operational teams to establish clear processes and pathways for achieving our targets. Additionally, you will lead the Circularity program within our General Merchandise (GM) sector, integrating our approach and building partnerships with relevant organizations. Your duties will also encompass managing supplier relationships, analyzing sustainability data, handling complex projects, and overseeing communication and reporting efforts. Your enthusiasm for sustainability, strong communication abilities, and capacity to navigate a matrix-style organization will be vital for the successful implementation of our sustainability initiatives.
Ideal Candidate Profile
We are looking for a seasoned and dedicated professional with extensive experience in environmental sustainability, particularly in food waste management and circular economy strategies. A degree in a relevant field, coupled with substantial practical experience, is essential. You should possess a comprehensive understanding of the WRAP food waste hierarchy and principles of circularity, along with experience in managing supplier relationships and complex sustainability projects. Your exceptional communication skills, both written and verbal, will enable you to collaborate effectively with various stakeholders and influence decisions at all levels. As a leader, you will exhibit strong project management capabilities, consistently prioritizing sustainable outcomes. Your analytical thinking and systems approach will help you navigate complex information and challenges to make informed decisions that align with Sainsbury's values and sustainability objectives. Your commitment to continuous personal development demonstrates your dedication to staying informed about the latest trends and best practices in environmental resource management and circularity.
We are committed to fostering an inclusive workplace, welcoming individuals from all backgrounds. At Sainsbury's, you will have opportunities to explore new roles and experiences across the business, with a strong emphasis on professional development and support. We also recognize and celebrate the efforts of our colleagues and strive to offer flexible working arrangements. When you join our team, you will enjoy a comprehensive range of benefits, including colleague discounts, pension schemes, life cover, and potential performance-related bonuses. Your well-being is a priority, and we provide annual holiday allowances, options to purchase additional leave, and various financial benefits to help you manage your expenses. Additionally, we offer an Employee Assistance Programme and access to private healthcare.
We value significant life moments, providing generous maternity, adoption, and paternity leave policies to support our employees during important times.
