• Respond to delivery and stock queries through email and Teams, helping colleagues access accurate information when they need it.
• Operate manual handling equipment, scanners and warehouse systems safely and correctly, including MHE where trained and licensed.
• Maintain clean, organised work areas and follow PPE, manual handling and health and safety requirements to create a safe working environment.

• A reliable and punctual approach, with the ability to work well as part of a team.
• The physical capability to carry out manual handling tasks safely.

• Good communication and organisational skills, including the ability to work with minimal supervision when required.
• A willingness to learn new tasks and develop your skills.

Nice to Have

• Previous experience in warehouse or logistics operations.
• Familiarity with scanners, warehouse management systems (WMS) or stock control processes.

• Safety First — You follow safe working practices, stay alert to potential hazards and speak up when something needs attention.
• Team Focus — You support colleagues, communicate openly and step in when workloads increase.
