Are you excited by the opportunity to join a thriving, forward-thinking business shaping the future of Port Operations! We’re seeking a passionate and skilled MHE Trainer to empower our workforce across various operational areas at the Port of Sheerness.
This role offers more than a job—it’s a stepping stone to a fulfilling career. We’ll invest in you, providing opportunities to sharpen your skills and progress within a growing company.
Your Role
Working collaboratively with Supervisors and Managers across the Port to ensure training meets operational needs, you’ll deliver on site, hands on, high impact training for new and existing teams across a range of material handling equipment ranging from 5-ton forklifts to 70-ton reach stackers—all in our dedicated specialist training area.
You’ll prepare training materials, maintain accurate records and ensure compliance with current legislation and accreditation standards.
You’ll also conduct incident investigations and support HSE initiatives.
Whilst the role is delivered Monday Friday, some flexibility may be required for early/late starts.
Who are we?

Much of our success depends on our unrivalled facilities and technology. But in our sector, it comes down to having the right talent to enable our organisation to grow.

* Proven MHE training experience—ideally in a port or logistics setting.
* Deep knowledge of Health and Safety and safe systems of work.
* Exceptional communication and coaching abilities.
* Detail-orientation, with strong Microsoft Office skills.
