Vacancy – Warehouse and Forklift Operative – Shift

Fixed term contract - Start date ASAP. End date 31.12.

We are looking to recruit dynamic self-motivated team players to join our client in production.

As part of a small warehouse team, you will need to be self-motivated, able to work on your own and confident enough to make operational decisions when needed. You will be liaising with delivery/collection companies coming to site, multi-tasking and prioritising your work with the other departments to achieve the daily targets by making sure they have all the raw materials needed for the days production. This involves both manual work and being computer literate in what can be a fast-moving environment.

A Counterbalance FLT license is a must as you’ll be unloading vehicles and moving a wide range of palleted products through the factory. Any experience of stock systems and keeping accurate records would be an advantage as would a driving license.

• Our client can offer you a company pension scheme, enhanced sick pay and there’s a company bonus if targets are hit.
• There is both a site and a companywide reward scheme, with the candidates being nominated by the workforce not management.
• They shut down between Christmas and New Year, the bank holidays are yours and what’s more, you’ll have the chance to purchase extra.
• And if that’s not enough, they will give you your Birthday Day off!
• Groupwide, they can offer an enhanced maternity, paternity and adoption leave, Life Assurance and career development if that’s your thing.
• For general wellbeing, they have a year-round calendar of health and wellbeing events, a 24/7 Employee assistance programme for all employees and a Perks Scheme with discounts and savings.
• They also fund-raise for a charity nominated by the employees (burger days and cakes are always a winner!) and you’ll have the chance to volunteer for a day – paid of course.
