Why choose ASDA?
Think beyond the competition
Think retail, think Asda. Why? We're one of the UK's fastest growing retailers, so there are plenty of opportunities to fast track your careers. You'll also find there's always something new to get involved in as we're constantly looking at new ways to meet the changing needs of our customers. We've nearly 400 stores and we're always growing, with plenty more planned. We're also proud to be part of Wal*Mart, the world's largest retailer. Our family now has over 170,000 colleagues within the UK and 2.1 million worldwide! Don't mistake us for a typical corporate business, we're far from it. It's a fun and exciting place to work. Fundamental to our business is the "way we do things around here", that is our culture and the way we work, which is unique to Asda.
Our three values are:
- We put our customers first, every day
- We care for our colleagues, every day
- We strive to be the best we can be, every day
For example, everyone is known by their first name, including Andy our Chairman. We all wear name badges and you can leave your suit jacket and tie at home. As for our colleagues, you won't find a more supportive and friendly bunch. Our standards are very high as we believe in making a difference - from big sustainability projects to helping local communities by passing on savings to our 17 million customers every week.
As a graduate at Asda, you'll be a future leader in one of the UK's most successful businesses, working as part of a strong team. So, the real question is – why would you work anywhere but Asda?
