This is what you will do

As an orderpicker at HEMA’s eDC in Utrecht, you are responsible for collecting orders that will be sent directly to customers. Your main tasks include scanning incoming goods, picking orders, and carefully wrapping breakable items for shipment. You will work in either day or evening shifts, so flexibility is important.

A typical day involves collaborating with your team to process incoming products, organize orders, and make sure everything is ready for delivery. The work environment is fast-paced, especially around the busy holiday season, with changing peak and calm days. Please note: full availability is needed during Christmas and New Year, as this is our busiest time. Taking a single day off can be discussed, but from January 2, 2027, full presence is required again.

Why apply? This job is perfect if you want to gain experience in logistics, enjoy working in a supportive team, and are looking for stable work with a good hourly wage.
