ALDIRARE
SCHOLARSHIP
Rare
is partnering with Aldi to form a scholarship for first and second year
students who are looking for industrial placements
What does the scholarship offer?
· £3,000 funding
for each year of the degree
· A place
on Aldi’s Industrial Scholarship, with a £25,000 salary
· The
potential to join Aldi’s Area Manager graduate scheme
As
well as obtaining funding for their studies, students will receive the opportunity
to join Aldi’s industrial placement programme.
This
scholarship is aimed at students from an ethnic minority background and
who are working towards a 2.1 in their degree.
What does
the industrial placement offer?
Students are
first taken through the day-to-day practical tasks involved in retail – this is
essential for understanding the business from the ground up.
Students then get
the opportunity to shadow a Store Manager in order to understand how Aldi
operates. This comes with the chance to work with an Area Manager and
understand how the business is run from a regional perspective.
While on the
scheme, students will learn about each area of the retail chain – including why
and how stores are located, managing supply and logistics, and learning about
how Aldi maintains cost efficiency.
What would
be the benefit for students?
The Aldi
industrial placement offers a unique opportunity for responsibility and
leadership development. Students will be able to:
·
Gain first-hand experience
of managing a successful retain store
·
Learn important management
skills, including the confidence to lead older and more experienced people
·
Gaining unique insight
into the Aldi business model, learning about how they have changed the face of
the UK retail industry
The placement is
brilliant for students looking to run their own business in the future, as well
as those interested in retail management.
Who is
eligible for the scholarship?
This
scholarship is aimed at students who are:
· From an
ethnic minority background
· In
their first or second years looking to do an industrial placement
· Working
towards a 2.1 in their degree
· Have a
UK Drivers Licence (or will obtain one within 3 months of applying)
