Together through our neighbourhood stores, online presence and loyalty scheme, Space NK has built a flourishing community in which to discover beauty. The customer is at the heart of everything we do, and we will always endeavour to offer everything they need to help them explore, experiment, and enjoy our brands.

Direct Fulfilment Supervisor (Weekends)

  • Lead the weekend operation. Keep fulfilment moving. Build a team proud to deliver.
  • Location: Space NK Distribution Centre
  • Department: Distribution
  • Reports to: Direct Fulfilment Manager
  • Working pattern 37.5 hours across 4 days per week, including weekend working

The Role

The Direct Fulfilment Supervisor is a hands-on operational leader responsible for delivering safe, accurate and productive customer order fulfilment across picking, packing and dispatch. Leading a large team of operatives, you will turn the agreed plan into clear shift priorities, maintain pace throughout the day and ensure orders are completed to the required quality and service standards.

Working with a high level of autonomy at weekends, you will take ownership from the management handover, make sound operational decisions, resolve issues as they arise and provide a clear, accurate handback on Monday. Just as importantly, you will create an environment where people understand what good looks like, take pride in their work and are recognised for the energy and commitment they bring.

What you will be responsible for

· Lead the shift: Translate the operational plan and management handover into clear priorities, resource deployment and achievable team targets.

· Drive productivity: Maintain the pulse of the operation throughout the shift, using WMS data and floor observation to track progress, identify constraints and take timely action.

· Deliver service and accuracy: Ensure customer orders are picked, packed and dispatched accurately, safely and within agreed service commitments.

· Lead and engage people: Brief, coach and motivate a large team of operatives, setting clear expectations, giving regular feedback and recognising great contribution.

· Manage performance fairly: Address gaps in standards, attendance, conduct or capability promptly and consistently, escalating or partnering with management and People teams when required.

· Own weekend continuity: Operate confidently without close day-to-day supervision, protecting operational momentum and escalating material risks through the agreed channels.

· Manage handovers: Receive, clarify and act on the incoming handover, then provide a concise Monday handback covering output, backlog, people, stock, systems, incidents and required follow-up.

· Troubleshoot WMS and pick issues: Investigate failed or incomplete picks, stock or location discrepancies, scanner and workflow issues, resolving first-line problems and escalating effectively where needed.

· Apply sound stock-flow judgement: Balance workload across pick, pack and dispatch, working with Inventory, Administration and other DC teams to remove barriers and maintain flow.

· Plan resources: Allocate people to demand, flex the team as priorities change and ensure breaks, skills coverage and workload are managed effectively.

· Maintain standards: Ensure compliance with health and safety, security, loss prevention, housekeeping, quality and all relevant company procedures.

· Improve the operation: Identify recurring issues and practical opportunities to improve safety, accuracy, productivity, colleague experience and customer outcomes.

What success looks like

· A safe, well-controlled and visibly led shift.

· Customer orders delivered on time, in full and to the required quality standard.

· Productivity and workflow remain on track, with issues identified and acted on early.

· The team has clear direction, receives feedback and feels recognised for strong performance.

· Accurate, useful handovers enable continuity between weekday and weekend leadership.

· WMS, stock and process issues are resolved at the right level or escalated with clear facts and ownership.

Experience and Knowledge

· Previous experience as a Supervisor or experienced Team Leader in a busy medium-sized or large distribution centre, warehouse or fulfilment operation.

· Proven experience leading sizeable operational teams in picking, packing and outbound fulfilment.

· Experience in a blended manual and automated warehouse environment.

· Confident user of a Warehouse Management System, with practical experience resolving pick, stock-flow or system-related exceptions.

· Strong understanding of productivity, accuracy, service, labour deployment and shift management in a fast-moving operation.

· Good working knowledge of warehouse health and safety, security, housekeeping and operational compliance.

· Confident and proficient using workplace IT, including WMS terminals or handheld devices, email and standard reporting tools.

Skills and Personal Approach

· A visible, calm and credible people leader who is comfortable making decisions and taking ownership.

· Able to set pace without compromising safety, accuracy or respect for colleagues.

· Strong judgement and practical problem-solving skills, particularly when priorities compete or information is incomplete.

· Clear communicator who can brief large teams, give constructive feedback and produce concise written handovers.

· Organised and data-aware, with the ability to interpret operational information and turn it into action.

· Resilient, flexible and comfortable working independently during weekend operations.

· Genuinely motivated by building pride in task, recognising effort and helping people perform at their best.

· Able to communicate effectively in spoken and written English to support safe working, team leadership, system use and operational handovers.

Key Working Relationships

· Direct Fulfilment Manager and fellow Direct Fulfilment Supervisor

· Distribution Centre management team

· Inventory and Administration teams

· Retail Fulfilment, Goods In, Returns and Replenishment teams

· Technology, systems support and carrier partners, as required

Additional expectations

The role is based on site within a busy Distribution Centre and requires regular presence on the warehouse floor. The postholder will need to work the agreed four-day pattern, including weekends, and remain flexible when operational demand requires reasonable changes to priorities or hours. Duties may evolve in line with the needs of the operation, provided they remain appropriate to the level and purpose of the role.
