You will learn how our Warehouse Management System controls stock throughout our processes and all aspects of stock checking systems, maintaining stock integrity.

• Supporting stock checks and audits
• Learning how to use the warehouse management system
• Helping maintain a clean, safe and well-organised warehouse environment
• Often working alone and being self-motivated

This role blends desk and warehouse work; you’ll be moving around a lot, so a good level of physical fitness will help. It’s important that you care about your team, our customers and our goods, and that you work to ensure drivers leave with the correct stock on board their trucks so our customers get the food they need.
