You will therefore be working within a substantial and proven organization that offers all the resources necessary to do your job to the best of your ability.

A clean machine

The role of Site Cleaner at Thermotraffic is extremely important to our operations and reputation.

To make this happen you:

• Work according to cleaning schedules and the standards demanded by Thermotraffic and its customers;

The other baseline requirements are:

• Previous experience of warehousing, distribution/logistics is an advantage;
• Experience of working in the cold storage industry is desirable but not essential;
• Effective spoken and written communication skills;
