• Support goods in and out processes, ensuring accuracy and compliance with company procedures.
• Liaise with internal departments to ensure all operational and administrative processes are followed correctly.
• Maintain general housekeeping standards within the warehouse to promote a safe and efficient working environment.
• Identify and support cost reduction initiatives within operations and administration processes.
• Occasionally attend other tkMUK sites for meetings, training, or cross-site operational support.
• Provide general support to the Operations Manager, Warehouse Operatives, Supervisor, and Admin team, bridging both warehouse and office functions.
