To join us you’ll have experience of using a Reach Fork Lift Truck.
Discover the best of both worlds. As the UK industry leader, we offer job security and career development – with the family feel, rewards and recognition of our friendly warehouse team in Reading. We take pride in looking after our people. So, as well as plenty of perks, a generous salary, realistic bonuses and other financial rewards, you’ll enjoy the training and support to go far.
Your role will be mainly focused on replenishing goods and putting stock away to enable the team to pick customer orders. In line with operational demands, you will also support the wider warehouse team and pick stock when needed. It starts with a full induction. But with our backing and optional accredited training that includes first aid and HGV driving, there’s no limit to your potential. In fact, almost 90% of our managers started life here as a Warehouse Operative. So, once you’re in, there are plenty of opportunities to move shifts, move roles – and move up.
As well as an eye for detail, you’ll need to be comfortable in a cool environment (we’ll provide a free thermal uniform to keep you warm), be able to lift weights of up to 25kg and ideally have your own transport to get here.
In addition to a competitive monthly salary, 31 days annual leave (including 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
