Salary: Competitive Plus Benefits
Location: Coventry Store Support Centre - Ansty Park and Home, Coventry, CV7 9RD
Contract type: Permanent
Business area: Sainsbury's Commercial & Sustainability
Closing date: 23 August 2026
Requisition ID: 400076018

We’d all like amazing work to do, and real work-life balance. That’s waiting for you at Sainsbury’s. Here, everything in our stores starts in Sainsbury’s Commercial. From product, proposition, packaging and price, to whether it meets our sustainability commitments or simply tastes great, our team is responsible for, all food, non- food and Clothing items available in Sainsbury’s stores, online and on demand. It’s an incredibly fast-paced environment. People here are in it together and aren’t afraid to take risks. The knowledge and experience you gain here could set you up for career moves anywhere else in the business. So, if you’re passionate about your products and just as hungry to learn, you’ll fit in perfectly.

As a Buying Assistant, you will provide essential administrative and operational support to the Buying team, ensuring that all processes are delivered accurately and in line with critical timelines. You will play a key role in implementing promotional and pricing plans, coordinating product set-up, supporting marketing campaigns, and maintaining accurate product and supplier information. Please note this role can be based at either our London or Ansty Park Store Support Centre, but will require travel to the other.

Day to day, you will work across a variety of activities including raising and tracking promotions, liaising with suppliers for product launches, maintaining SKU and system accuracy, and responding to queries from internal stakeholders and store colleagues. You will also support data analysis, reviewing customer feedback and competitor pricing to help inform trading decisions, while ensuring compliance with internal processes and legal requirements.

More about you

You will bring a high level of organisation and attention to detail, with the ability to manage multiple tasks and deadlines in a fast-paced environment. You will be comfortable working with data, able to interpret information and use it to support decision-making, while maintaining a strong focus on accuracy and process.

You will demonstrate effective communication and stakeholder management skills, enabling you to build positive relationships across the business and with external partners. A proactive and solutions-focused approach is key, alongside the ability to prioritise workload, adapt to changing priorities, and continuously look for ways to improve processes and outcomes.

Essential criteria

Demonstrable experience carrying out administrative tasks accurately within defined timelines
Previous experience of internal Argos or JS systems essential - e.g RMS, DRS, Online Range Plans
Proven ability to use Microsoft Excel and other MS Office tools to input, maintain and analyse data
Experience handling and maintaining data accuracy across systems or databases
Demonstrable experience managing multiple tasks and prioritising workload to meet deadlines
Evidence of working with internal or external stakeholders to resolve queries or deliver tasks

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 5% 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.

Please see www.sainsburys.jobs for a range of our benefits (note, length of service and eligibility criteria may apply).
