We believe in providing meaningful work and achieving a real work/life balance. Here, you'll find both. Our Supply Chain team is the engine room for getting thousands of products from farms and factories to our millions of customers every day. We leverage insight and data to anticipate customer needs, ensuring they get what they want, when they need it. You'll be part of a team that is data-driven and judgement-focused, always the first to identify and address any issues or ambiguities. A culture of collaboration, customer obsession, and continuous improvement drives us to deliver market-leading product availability and operational excellence, and fuels our innovation. Our Supply Chain team calls for people who champion change, are customer-obsessed, data-driven, and excel at collaborating and communicating effectively - because those people can go a very long way.

Whether your specialism is electrical or mechanical, you’ll find plenty of interesting challenges to get stuck into at Sainsbury’s. In our fast-paced environment, you’ll test your ability to find and fix different faults logically and efficiently, every shift. Yours will be a key role in keeping our operations on track.  

A team player with good communication skills, you’ll bring to the role a knowledge of health and safety issues, plus confidence working with computers. We’ll expect you to be qualified to City & Guilds level 3 or equivalent, and to have served your time as an electrical or mechanical engineering apprentice.  

At Sainsbury’s you’ll find a stable job in an organisation that takes your skills seriously. The benefits are really good too – including paid holiday, a colleague discount card after 4 weeks that gives you and a second user 10% on most items in Sainsbury’s, Argos and Habitat. Throughout the year we regularly increase discount at Sainsbury’s and Argos to 15% as an additional benefit and food and hot drinks is provided in colleague areas in all our Depots. And if a longer-term career is what you’re interested in, there’s nothing stopping you moving on up. We never say no to ambition.
