About the Employer

Doordeals is a successful, growing independent online retailer specialising in high-quality internal and external timber doors. With roots dating back to 1971, the business has built a strong reputation for quality products, great customer service and expert knowledge. Based in Chesterfield, Doordeals now delivers orders across the UK and continues to grow.

What You'll Do

No two days will look exactly the same, but your typical week could include:

• Lifting and moving bulky stock items


• Picking and allocating stock


• Packaging goods ready for dispatch


• Checking the quality of goods


• Loading and unloading vehicles


• Checking products against delivery notes, including measuring door sizes and glass apertures


• Inputting information accurately onto computer systems


• Helping customers in person and over the phone in a courteous, polite and professional way


• Completing stock checks


• Keeping the warehouse and your workspace clean and tidy

You’ll have support around you while you learn, but we’ll also encourage you to stay focused, use your initiative and understand why accuracy matters at every stage.

Please note: This is a repetitive and very physical role. You will need to be comfortable lifting and moving heavy and bulky items throughout the day as part of the team.

Training Outcome

For the right person, we want this to be the start of a career with Doordeals, not just a job. Someone who is hardworking, reliable, eager to learn and committed to building a long-term career with us. Several senior members of our team started in the warehouse and have since progressed within the business.
