About the role

Where has your journey taken you so far?

• Are you great with people?
• Do you have passion for delivering great service?
• Looking for a role that keeps you active?
• Experienced in multi-temperature environments and using ‘voice head sets’ to pick orders?

If night working suits your life, and you have the energy to make sure our drivers leave with the right product in the right place at the right time, then why not make our journey your journey?

Play an important part in our journey

Our night shift starts from 20:00to 05:30 and rotas are any 5 in 7 days.

As a Warehouse Operative, you’ll handle a wide range of shelved, chilled and frozen products.

Loading experience would be an advantage.

You’ll be:

• Picking orders through Q pick technology – so you’ll be wearing a Scanner
• Loading products, and making sure they’re arranged and stored correctly.
• Using our handling equipment (we’ll train you on how to use it safely!).
• Relocating products using pump trucks, power pallet trucks and forklifts.

You’ll be moving around a lot, so a good level of physical fitness will help you on your journey with us. It’s also important that you care about your team, our customers and our goods. Most of all, you’ll work hard to make sure our drivers leave the warehouse on time and with the right orders in their trucks, so our customers get the food they need.

The essentials

• A pension - contribute 4% and we’ll match you (after year 1, we’ll match your contributions up to 6%).
• Life cover that you can increase.
• Access to confidential support and counselling, when you need it.
• A health plan that gives you money back on everyday medical costs for all the family, as well as access to a digital GP.

The extras

• Exclusive range of high street discounts including cinema, tech, travel, fashion, food and drink.
• Get paid as you earn - access to up to 20% of your pay before payday.
