We are seeking a detail oriented, strategic and highly motivated Supply Chain Analyst.
As a Supply Chain Analyst, you will be responsible for Supply Chain processes and procedures across various departments within the business. We are looking for someone with excellent communication and organisational skills and the ability to use their own initiative.
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 without our Supply Chain team, there’d simply be no products in those stores.
