What You'll Do
As a Warehouse Operative, you'll play a vital role in keeping the supply chain moving at the busiest time of the year. You'll:
* Handle goods from intake through to dispatch, loading and unloading vehicles
* Pick and scan stock using modern electronic voice equipment

* Follow health & safety procedures to keep yourself and your team safe
* Be part of a supportive team that works with pace and precision to deliver for our customers
What we are looking for?
* Team players who are dependable, adaptable, and ready to get stuck in
* An eye for detail and the drive to succeed in a fast-moving environment
* Warehouse or chilled experience is useful, but not essential — we'll train you
