Shift Pattern: Sunday – Thursday: 21:00 – 06:30
Harlow
If you are as ambitious as we are and you’re looking to progress a career in warehouse operations, join us on the night shift as a Warehouse Team Manager at our Harlow Depot. We currently have 3 positions available.
You’ll be responsible for ensuring your team of warehouse operatives are working safely and efficiently, and that key targets are being achieved. You will lead by example and drive high performance through great communication, teamwork and building strong working relationships. You will work closely with the shift manager to plan workload and resource effectively, as well as developing the skills of your team members to support their career aspirations and increase shift capability. There’s paperwork and administration to complete as part of this role, so you’ll need an eye for detail and have the ability to work accurately and in a timely manner.
We are looking to fill 3 of the above positions on the night shift. You will enjoy working in a busy role which requires you to think on your feet and pro-actively problem solve - dealing with operational challenges as they arise, escalating to more senior managers if necessary. You will want to make a difference and proactively look for ways to make improvements and challenge current ways of working.
To join us as a Warehouse Team Manager you will have previous experience of leading a team in a fast paced, time pressured environment. Experience within a warehouse operation would be advantageous but is not essential. What’s key is your ability and desire to learn - understanding the business and operation quickly.
This is a great role that offers the opportunity for progression within a large organisation. In addition to a competitive monthly salary, 31 days annual leave (inc. statutory) and company pension, you can also look forward to the following benefits:
1. Wagestream – Access to an app that gives you early access to your earned salary and supports financial wellbeing
2. The option to purchase additional annual leave
3. Help at Hand - Access to 24/7 GP appointments, physiotherapy and a range of health and wellbeing services for you and your family
4. Life assurance
5. Access to Sysco Perks offering discounts across a wide range of products and services – from gym membership to your weekly supermarket shop
6. The ability to purchase our products at hugely discounted prices
7. Heavily subsidised colleague canteen
To enjoy the rewards of joining our supportive team, apply now.
