Store Management Apprentice Review

Running the shop floor ensuring staff are doing the correct jobs, running covid health and safety checklists to ensure safety for staff and customers, completing administrative tasks.

i’ve picked up the ability to manage staff, also manage my own time and others to make sure tasks run smoothly and staff get out on time.

i enjoy my program, i am trusted by managers to complete tasks to the best of my ability giving me the opportunity to thrive in the workplace

the aldi structure is good and clear however the training from lifetime is poor, it’s not managed well, meetings are infrequent and not structured, the irregularities with the training mean i am not completing the course as quickly as possible, despite being far ahead inside the workplace

i receive a great amount of support from the company, when moving store it was dealt with without any stress or hassle for myself and you’re always checked up on from managers and above

almost non existent support, i’m left unaware of when i will complete the qualification due to the fact they contact so infrequently

i don’t believe the training is relevant to my work at all, it’s a very general course which is built up of skills and information i already know from the workplace

yes Aldi have many work charity events to get involved with, however due to covid these aren’t going ahead yet but will be in the near future

Yes

It’s a great opportunity to learn new skills and build yourself as a person, inside the company it is well structured and you’re able to progress through the company if you put the effort in

experience in similar roles is important, working in a busy thriving environment you need to be a quick thinker and problem solver, but as long as you have a positive working attitude you will fit in.
