Operate material handling equipment safely and efficiently.
Maintain a clean, organised, and safe working environment.
Follow company procedures relating to quality, inventory control, and health and safety.

Essential Requirements

Previous experience in a stores, warehouse, manufacturing, or logistics environment.
Experience handling goods inwards, stock control, material issuing, or dispatch activities.
Good organisational skills and attention to detail.
Ability to work effectively as part of a small team.
Comfortable using computer systems and basic Microsoft Office applications.
Reliable, proactive, and willing to learn new processes.
Positive attitude and strong work ethic.

What We're Looking For

We are looking for someone who is dependable, hands-on, and takes pride in their work. The successful candidate will thrive in a small team environment, supporting the smooth flow of materials through the manufacturing process. While SAP experience would be beneficial, attitude, reliability, and a willingness to learn are the most important qualities for this role. You will play a key role in ensuring materials are available to production and customer orders are packed and dispatched accurately and on time.
