Semi Skilled Warehouse Operative Swindon

Warehouse Operative – Enhanced Picking

Location: Western Super Mare/Swindon
Salary: £12.71
Hours: Morning Shift - 37.5 Hours per week
Contract: Temporary - Chance to go Perm after 12 weeks

We are currently recruiting for an experienced Warehouse Operative to join an internationally recognised production company that manufactures specialist components used within the aerospace, defence and engineering industries. (Candidates Must be able to commute to Western for Training) 

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who has previous warehouse and picking experience and is looking for a role where accuracy, attention to detail and quality are essential.

The Role

As a Warehouse Operative, you will be responsible for the accurate picking and preparation of components and materials required for production. This is enhanced picking, rather than a straightforward high-volume warehouse picking role, so you will need to work carefully to detailed instructions and ensure that the correct parts, quantities and references are selected every time.

Your responsibilities will include:

Accurately picking components and materials using handheld picking devices

Checking part numbers, quantities and product information against picking requirements

Ensuring all picked items are correctly identified and prepared for the next stage of production

Using warehouse management systems and handheld scanners/devices

Maintaining accurate stock and picking records

Following detailed processes, procedures and quality requirements

Working closely with production and warehouse colleagues to ensure materials are available when required

Maintaining a clean, organised and safe working environment

Reporting any discrepancies, damaged items or stock issues promptly

About You

We are looking for someone who is methodical, reliable and highly detail-focused. You will need to understand that even a small picking error can have significant consequences, so getting it right first time is extremely important.

You will ideally have:

Previous warehouse, stores, logistics or picking experience

Experience using handheld scanners or picking devices

Excellent attention to detail and a methodical approach to work

A good level of spoken and written English, with the ability to understand detailed instructions and documentation

Good numeracy and the ability to accurately check quantities and part numbers

The ability to follow processes and procedures consistently

A reliable and positive attitude

The ability to work independently while also being part of a wider team

Experience within aerospace, defence, engineering or manufacturing would be advantageous, but is not essential.

Why Join?

This is an opportunity to work within a highly established international production environment, supporting the manufacture of specialist components for some of the world's most demanding industries.

If you are an experienced picker who takes pride in accuracy, organisation and getting the detail right, we would be keen to hear from you.
