The posting

Are you looking for a position in which you keep things moving and deliver when it matters most? If so, then you could be the newest addition to our team as a Reach Truck Driver.

Be part of the movement - and play your part.

About the role

Shift: Sunday to Thursday (22:00 - 06:00)

We are seeking a Reach Truck Driver to join our warehouse operations. If you have the skills and experience to thrive in a fast-paced environment, this role could be perfect for you.

You will be responsible for:

  • Perform general warehouse duties including pick and pack operations.
  • Use WMS scanners to replenish pallets for order picking and handle bulk pallets as needed.
  • Control and place inbound pallets into correct racking spaces with precision and care.
  • Conduct pre-shift equipment checks by following pre-op check sheets.
  • Label cartons accurately and ensure all merchandise is handled with care.
  • Unload containers and assist with physical tasks, requiring strength, fitness, and dexterity.
  • Maintain a clean and tidy warehouse environment while working.
  • Demonstrate the ability to work effectively under limited supervision.

About you

Previous experience using a reach truck and working in a warehouse environment, along with an understanding of WMS hand scanners, is essential. The ideal candidate should demonstrate the ability to apply smart working practices to minimise redundant tasks, as well as safely stack and package goods using industrial plastic wraps and wooden pallets. Staying up to date on health and safety requirements and forklift operating procedures is crucial. Our warehouse is a happy workplace where employees can work both independently and as part of a team. Strong communication skills and excellent teamwork are key to collaborating effectively with colleagues and management.

We think the strongest teams are built on diversity and inclusivity. Contrasting opinions, varied skills and strong characters bring out the best in us all. And we cannot wait for you to join.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
