Role Overview
We value attitude over experience and strongly believe in providing opportunities for capable, hard-working people to develop and progress.
As a Terminal Support Worker, you will be responsible for the cleaning and presentation of shipping containers for a prestigious global client. The role involves a two-stage process:
1. De-cant Process - emptying the containers
2. Cleaning - internal and external cleaning of the container

This is a physical, hands-on role that involves working at height (approx. 8-9 ft). Full training will be provided, including competence in the safe use of a harness. The role also involves working inside containers, so the ability to work in confined areas is important.
You will be part of a small, supportive team where a positive attitude and strong safety awareness are essential.
