We’d all like amazing work to do, and real work/life balance. That’s waiting for you right here. Supply Chain and Logistics are the engine room for getting thousands of products from farms and factories, through the business and to our millions of customers every day. We plan around events from barbecue weekends to Sunday roasts, and who wants oven-ready cauliflower cheese to those who prefer to make it from scratch. Insight and data are everything. But so is judgement — if there’s an issue or ambiguity anywhere, we’re the first to spot it. There’s a big transformation going on. That calls for people who champion change, bring others with them, collaborate and communicate. Because those people can go a very long way.
Please note that this role is a fixed-term assignment lasting between 12 to 24 months.
Why join us:
Joining Sainsbury's as a Logistics Systems Business Analyst means being part of a dynamic and innovative team dedicated to revolutionising logistics operations and driving impactful change across the network. You will have the opportunity to work on a multiyear programme to enhance Sainsbury's Food WMS, collaborating with cross-functional teams and utilising cutting-edge technologies to optimise processes and deliver exceptional results. With a focus on continuous improvement, stakeholder engagement, and fostering a culture of openness and collaboration, this role offers the chance to make a significant impact and contribute to the success of a leading retail organisation.
What you'll do:
In the role of Logistics Systems Business Analyst at Sainsbury's, you will be responsible for supporting the business team in understanding and mapping the current logistics operations and technologies, identifying areas for improvement, and exploring opportunities for standardisation or deviations from standard practises. You will play a crucial role in a multiyear programme to replace Sainsbury's Food WMS across the network, considering aspects such as people, organisation, processes, information, data, and technology. Collaborating with business teams, on-site operations, and Sainsbury's Tech teams, you will document findings, explore best-in-class solutions, identify areas for process automation / improvement, and ensure successful delivery through stakeholder engagement, requirements workshops, and continuous monitoring and reporting of progress.
Who you are:
As a Logistics Systems Business Analyst at Sainsbury's, you are a highly skilled professional with a strong understanding of business analysis techniques, organisational awareness, and a background in supply chain, logistics, and warehousing systems. Your ability to coordinate multiple activities, lead small to medium teams, and manage stakeholders effectively allows you to drive continuous improvement and deliver impactful solutions that meet the evolving needs of the business. With a focus on detail, technical aptitude, and a collaborative mindset, you play a crucial role in identifying opportunities for process automation and improvement, contributing to the success of multiyear programmes and ensuring the alignment of people, processes, data, and technology within the logistics operations.
We are committed to being a truly inclusive retailer so you’ll be welcomed whoever you are and wherever you work. Around here, there’s always the chance to try something new — whether that’s as part of an evolving team or somewhere else across the business - and we take development seriously and promise to support you. We also recognise and celebrate colleagues when they go the extra mile and, where possible, offer flexible working. When you join our team, we’ll also offer you an amazing range of benefits. Here are some of them:
Starting off with colleague discount, you'll be able to save 10% on your shopping online and instore at Sainsbury's, Argos, TU and Habitat, and we regularly increase the discount to 15% at points during the year. We've also got you covered for your future with our pensions scheme and life cover. You'll also be able to share in our success as you may be eligible for a performance-related bonus of up to 10% of salary, depending on how we perform.
Your wellbeing is important to us too. You'll receive an annual holiday allowance and you can buy up to an additional week's holiday. We also offer other benefits that will help your money go further such as season ticket loans, cycle to work scheme, health cash plans, salary advance (where you can access some of your pay before pay day) as well access to a great range of discounts from hundreds of other retailers. And if you ever need it there is also an employee assistance programme.
Moments that matter are as important to us as they are to you which is why we give up to 26 weeks’ pay for maternity or adoption leave and up to 4 weeks’ pay for paternity leave.
