As a Forklift Driver at Tyrrells, you’ll play a vital role in ensuring the smooth, safe, and efficient movement of materials around the site. From transporting finished goods to managing raw materials and unloading potato deliveries, you’ll support the daily operation by following site procedures and maintaining accurate stock records.

You’ll work closely with colleagues to meet production and despatch priorities, always upholding high standards of hygiene, quality, and food safety. This is a hands-on role suited to someone who enjoys being active, takes pride in their work, and thrives in a team environment.
What’s in it for you?
We believe in giving back and making sure you're happy and thriving. Here's a taste of what we offer:
* Comprehensive Healthcare Support – Access to a Medicash Health Cash Plan, including a Digital GP service, Best Doctors (Second Medical Opinion Service), and specialist Cancer Care for peace of mind when you need it most.
* KP Pension Plan - contribution matching up to 7% of your salary
* 24 days holiday + holiday buy scheme
* KP4ME - online benefits, discounts, prizes, competitions and information platform with access to mental, physical and financial wellbeing information and tools
What will you be doing?
* Operate forklifts and material handling equipment confidently and safely to move stock efficiently across the site, supporting daily production and warehousing needs.
* Tackle the challenge of managing incoming deliveries and outgoing despatches, ensuring accuracy and speed while maintaining high standards of food safety and quality.
* Work closely with your teammates in the materials handling team to coordinate tasks, share updates, and keep everything running smoothly throughout the day.
* Play a key role in keeping our operations flowing – your attention to detail and timely movements directly contribute to delivering our products to customers on time.
* Grow your skills through hands-on experience and ongoing training, including maintaining certified competence in forklift operation and learning our stock control systems.
Who are we?
Glad you asked! We're KP Snacks, proud to be part of the Intersnack family. Picture this: over 15,000 of us, spread across more than 30 countries, all working together to create the snacks you love. From Hula Hoops to McCoy's, we're the team behind your favourite munchies.
Here in the UK, we're about 2,400 strong, spread across seven factories and our Slough HQ. But don't let our size fool you – we're as close-knit as they come. We believe in speaking our minds, celebrating our differences, and pushing boundaries together.
Diversity isn't just a buzzword for us. We're on a mission to create a workplace where everyone belongs. So, even if you don't tick every box, we want to hear from you! Your unique perspective could be just what we need. Also, if there's anything we can do to make this process easier for you, just give us a shout.
We’d love to hear from you if you can demonstrate the following knowledge, skills and experience:
* A valid and up-to-date Counterbalance Forklift Truck (FLT) licence is essential for this role.
* You’ll need a good standard of basic English and Maths to follow site procedures and complete essential documentation accurately.
* We’re looking for someone who can follow set processes and work confidently with scanning systems – helping the whole team stay organised, safe, and efficient.
* Previous warehouse experience is a bonus, but not essential – if you’ve worked in a hands-on, fast-paced environment and enjoy being part of a busy team, we’d love to hear from you.
* Experience operating an articulated truck, PPT stacker truck or Reach truck is helpful but not required – we’re open to supporting your development in these areas if you bring the right attitude and drive.
* We value teamwork, safety, and ownership – so if you’re proactive, safety-conscious and eager to learn, you’ll fit right in with our culture at KP Snacks.
