* You will also unload our building products from supplier deliveries and accurately book them in the branch warehouse.
* Experience of using a forklift is ideal, but full training is provided.
* Safety is at the forefront of everything we do; your aim will be to ensure that our standards never slip, which means maintaining a tidy and safe working environment.

* Someone who is adaptable, resilient and tenacious with high levels of energy and drive.
* Someone who thrives in a dynamic and fast paced environment.
