We have big plans for both the UK and Ireland. So it’s down to our National IT (NIT) teams to help us deliver. We call on a mix of Technicians, Specialists, Analysts, Project Managers and support staff to turn our business needs into IT solutions. As part of an increasingly global business, we’re always looking for more innovative and efficient ways of doing things. So, when you join, you’ll create even better experiences using relevant technological advances to make that happen. Standards are high; things move fast, challenges are tough. Ready?
From Director to Apprentice, there are many key levels in National IT, all working together to support this essential function. Every level offers the opportunity to introduce fresh ideas and expertise so that we can carry on improving our business.
As an expert in your area, you will be responsible for presenting solutions and approaches as well as managing any changes to the existing business processes. You will be able to think strategically, always considering the overall goals of the department and the wider business.
Our National IT teams support Aldi by delivering our system and infrastructure needs. As a Senior Manager, you will command a large team, motivating them to drive forward a number of complex projects and offer technical support. You will build strong relationships with our International IT team, and liaise with them to ensure we're in line with the bigger picture, while making a case to incorporate business needs.

Our National IT Managers are a pretty rare breed. They have the kind of technical ability that earns the respect of the team. But, as importantly, they’ve got the experience to see the bigger picture. So as well as leading and developing a team of Apprentices, Technicians, Specialists and Analysts on some major projects – whether that’s for eCommerce, Stores, Purchasing or Logistics – they’ve also got a handle on the impact the work has on the business. It calls for strategic vision, unquestionable project management, outstanding people management, tight budgetary control and the ability to handle just about anything else the business has up its sleeve.
