Whether you're an experienced Warehouse Team Leader looking for your next challenge, or a Warehouse Assistant ready to take the next step into a leadership role, we'd love to hear from you.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a supportive team where hard work, teamwork and a positive attitude are valued. We're looking for someone who leads by example, enjoys working with people, and isn't afraid to roll their sleeves up when needed.

The Role

As Warehouse Team Leader, you'll play a key role in the day-to-day operation of the warehouse, ensuring stock moves efficiently, processes run smoothly, and the team remains motivated and productive.

This is a varied role combining warehouse operations, team leadership and administrative responsibilities.

Key Responsibilities

Leading, motivating, and supporting the warehouse team on a daily basis
Conducting daily team huddles and communicating priorities effectively
Ensuring orders are picked, packed, and dispatched accurately and on time
Maintaining high standards of health and safety across the warehouse
Monitoring stock levels and assisting with stock control processes
Supporting purchasing activities and liaising with suppliers
Completing warehouse administration and maintaining accurate records
Investigating stock discrepancies and helping implement solutions
Assisting with goods-in and goods-out operations
Working collaboratively with other departments to ensure excellent customer service
Leading by example and promoting a positive team culture
Supporting continuous improvement initiatives within the warehouse

About You

We're looking for someone with the right attitude, strong work ethic, and a genuine passion for teamwork.

You Will Ideally Have:

Previous warehouse experience
Experience as a Team Leader, Supervisor, or a desire to move into a leadership position
Confidence in leading and motivating a team
Strong communication and organisational skills
Good attention to detail with stock and administrative tasks
Experience with stock control, purchasing or supplier management would be advantageous
A proactive and positive approach to work
Basic IT skills and confidence using warehouse systems
The ability to prioritise workload in a fast-paced environment

Most Importantly, You'll Be:

A team player who enjoys working with like-minded people
Physically fit and happy to assist with manual handling and moving boxes when required
Reliable, flexible, and willing to learn new skills
Someone who takes ownership and leads by example
Committed to upholding our company values and maintaining a positive working environment

Recruitment Process

We believe finding the right fit works both ways.

Successful applicants will be invited to:

Complete a Solo video interview
Attend an initial interview and complete a warehouse trial shift

This allows you to experience the role first-hand and ensures you'll be joining a team that shares your values and work ethic.

If you're looking for an opportunity to develop your leadership skills, work with a great team, and build a long-term career, we'd love to hear from you.
