Our huge warehouse in Nuneaton is one of our most valuable assets, because of that it needs constant care and attention to keep running.
With that in mind, our support technicians are considered some of our most important development areas and we want you to join our maintenance team and become a well-rounded technician who can keep the ball rolling.
What will I be doing?
Our goal is to deliver zero downtime, zero accidents, and 100% customer order fulfillment, and you will help us deliver this by:
Reactively responding to calls of equipment failure and proactively undertaking maintenance on equipment in the distribution centre. All the while, developing your own knowledge and seeking the support of the technicians and shift managers in the business.
Other responsibilities:
1. Identify and carry out additional improvement projects.
2. Assist in the installation and trials of new equipment.
3. Recognise gaps in your own knowledge and seek development and training.
4. Keep the workplace safe and tidy.
It goes without saying that you must ensure all duties are carried out with health and safety as the main focus of what you do.
What do you need to be successful?
You will need to have some exposure to MHE equipment, electro-mechanical systems and detection equipment.
It is not essential for you to have specific qualifications but you will need a desire to work towards these.
You will also need:
5. Knowledge of risk assessment activities.
6. General knowledge of PCs and Microsoft Office Applications.
7. Good general health and no restrictions on mobility.
8. Experience working alone and using your own initiative to make decisions.
9. Experience working within a team.

If this sounds like you then please apply and join us on this journey.
