National Buying Placement- Sustainability

12 Month Undergraduate Placement July 2025 - July 2026 (Exact start date TBC)£26,000

Are you looking for a Placement where you will be in the thick of the action from the start? Here at Aldi, you will get exactly that, as you experience a year like no other. Gaining real responsibility and making an impact from day one. This is your chance to join one of the market-leading retailers and Times Top 100 employers, learning the ‘ins and outs’ of Sustainability at Aldi.  This is a fantastic opportunity to kickstart your career and be inspired by a company that means more!  Just like the rest of Aldi, we’re a positive, hardworking team who enjoy coming up with new processes and business change. Alongside our commercial focus, we’re motivated by making a difference to people and the planet as the products we sell can make a huge difference. Ideally with a relevant degree, we want to recruit an individual that is as passionate about British farming, sustainable and affordable food and our global environmental impact as much as we are.

An ideal candidate is a somebody who can adapt to the fast-paced nature of both Aldi and sustainability in the current everchanging business environment. You’ll be based in our National Sustainability team working on projects related to Health & Nutrition, Ethical Trading, Communities and more. Please note that our Placement Programmes are for university students currently studying towards an undergraduate degree, who are seeking a 12-month sandwich placement before their final year of study.  You’ll need to be working towards a 2:1 degree, have 96 UCAS points from your top 3 A-Levels (or equivalent qualifications), possess a driving licence and have the right to work in the UK. 

The Placement application window may close early due to high volumes of applications; therefore, we recommend you apply soon.
