Job description

Pay Rate: £15, 610.40 per annum

Contract Type: Permanent

Shift patterns:

Sunday 07:00 - 17:00 at HMP Hull

PLEASE NOTE: This role is based inside a prison and involves working alongside serving offenders. You will be required to pass enhanced security vetting as part of the recruitment process.

This isn't a standard warehouse role. At DHL Supply Chain, we run warehouse operations inside prisons supporting the HMPPS Canteen Service. This service allows offenders to use their own money to buy approved items such as food, toiletries and everyday essentials - with our teams responsible for picking, packing and distributing these orders within the prison.

A TYPICAL DAY MAY INVOLVE
  • Working on the prison wing, handing out orders to offenders
  • A very hands-on role with lots of lifting and moving stock (can be heavy at times)
  • Loading and unloading deliveries when they arrive on-site
  • Checking orders are right before they're given out
  • Following prison rules and working to set procedures
THIS ROLE WOULD SUIT PEOPLE WHO

We are open to applicants from all backgrounds. Experience isn't everything - what matters most is your attitude, communication, and how you deal with people.

  • Comfortable working inside a prison, alongside offenders
  • Able to communicate clearly and deal with people, including in challenging situations
  • Have 3 years UK address history (required for security clearance)
  • Happy in a physical role - expect regular lifting and moving heavy stock
  • Interested in doing a job that can make a real difference
  • Must have own transport as you will need to travel to both Doncaster and Hull
WHY JOIN US?
  • Free parking
  • Eligibility to apply for a Blue Light Card (discounts across retail, travel and more)
  • We're happy to talk about flexible working - just ask about alternative patterns at interview
  • 12-week induction programme to get you up to speed
  • Free confidential 24/7 GP service
  • Hundreds of retail and lifestyle discounts
  • Generous pension scheme (up to 8% employer contribution)
