Job summary

Taiko Acton is seeking a proven warehouse leader to manage a 45-hour weekly operation and a hands-on team. You will oversee staffing, training, quality control, and timely material flow to production, ensuring accuracy in packing, labeling and stock control.

In this role you’ll drive efficiency, report issues early, and cooperate with Purchasing to resolve problems, with ample scope to develop within the business and benefit from a discretionary bonus program.

Qualifications

• You’ve led teams before and know how to get people performing at their best.
• You’re organised, switched on, and detail-obsessed (in a good way).
• You don’t cut corners – quality is non-negotiable.
• You stay cool under pressure and thrive in a fast-moving environment.
• You’re hands-on and not afraid to get stuck in with your team.
• You spot problems early and fix them fast.
• You communicate clearly and keep everyone aligned.
• You take ownership – when it’s yours, it’s yours.

Responsibilities

• Lead and supervise the warehouse team – keeping everyone sharp, focused, and on it.
• Make sure all tasks are completed on time, every time – no errors.
• Own the full warehouse operation – from staffing and training to daily performance.
• Ensure your team is trained, confident, and fully equipped to smash their roles.
• Keep quality tight – if it’s not right, it doesn’t go to production. No exceptions.
• Double-check materials, packaging and labels are 100% correct (details matter here).
• Spot and report errors, stock shortages, or issues before they become problems.
• Keep production flowing by delivering the right materials, in the right volumes.
• Work closely with Purchasing and management to flag and fix any issues.
• Step in to support stock transfers when needed.
• Keep everything clean, organised and audit-ready (warehouse, chillers, freezers).
• Make sure goods-in processes are followed properly, every time.
• Drive efficiency – smarter planning, less overtime.
• Retrain team members who need support getting back on track.
• Own traceability (Navision) and make sure processes are followed properly.
• Support stocktakes and investigate any discrepancies.
• Keep paperwork accurate and up to date.
• Carry out forklift checks and maintain safe working standards.
