About this role
Every customer order starts and ends on the warehouse floor. This role keeps standard industrial parts moving accurately from goods-in to dispatch, so production lines stay supplied and promised dates are kept. You will be judged on clean stock, error-free shipments, and a safe, orderly operation—not on how busy the day looks.
Performance Objectives
- Receive, check, and put away inbound stock the same day so locations and quantities match the system before the next pick wave.
- Pick, pack, and dispatch daily orders to cut-off with no preventable shortages, mis-picks, or labelling errors.
- Hold inventory accuracy through cycle counts and location discipline, correcting discrepancies before they reach a customer.
- Replenish pick faces ahead of demand so high-runners never stop an order mid-shift.
- Protect product quality in handling, storage, and packing, cutting damage and returns caused in the warehouse.
- Raise shortages, damages, and process gaps the same shift so supervisors can fix them before they miss a ship date.
- Keep aisles, equipment, and paperwork compliant with safety and quality standards throughout the shift.
Environment & Resources
You will report to the Warehouse Supervisor and work with a small goods-in, storage, and dispatch team on a busy manufacturing site. Scanners, inventory software, packing stations, pallet trucks, and PPE are provided. Priorities are set against daily order cut-offs and stock targets; there is no discretionary budget.
Essential Qualifications
- Proven goods-in, picking, packing, and dispatch experience in a parts or manufacturing warehouse.
- Accurate use of scanners or an inventory system, plus reliable numeracy for counts and part numbers.
- Safe manual handling; pallet-truck competence required, forklift licence an advantage.
- Track record of hitting daily output without sacrificing accuracy on small components.
- Consistent attendance and the stamina for a physical, on-site shift.
- Habit of following safety and quality procedures and flagging problems early.
Role Selling Points
- Visible impact: your accuracy shows up in on-time deliveries the same day.
- Broad industrial range—clamps, handles, castors, fasteners, and machine accessories—not a single-SKU operation.
- Standards-led team that values a correct pick over a rushed one.
- Clear path to learn the full flow from receipt through stock control to dispatch.
