About the Role
We are looking for an experienced warehouse professional who is ready for more than a standard forklift role. This is a hands-on senior position for someone who enjoys being on the floor moving stock, but also wants responsibility for systems, planning, inventory control, and communication across the supply chain. For the right person, this role provides a clear pathway into a Warehouse Supervisor or Team Leader position.
If you have strong warehousing fundamentals, confidence with systems, and like taking ownership of how work gets done, we want to hear from you.
Specifically, your responsibilities will include:
- Operating forklifts (counterbalance and reach) for receipting, putaway, picking, staging and dispatch.
- Container devanning and loading, including planning and sequencing of inbound freight.
- Coordinating freight movements and liaising with freight forwarders, transport providers and drivers.
- Managing receipting, inventory control, stock investigations and adjustments.
- Running and interpreting inventory and operational reports.
- Supporting and coordinating stock counts and cycle counts.
- Maintaining accurate system movements and documentation.
- Supporting day-to-day planning of warehouse tasks and workflows.
- Being a visible, hands-on presence on the floor to keep standards high.
About You
We are looking for someone wanting to step into a senior role in time, capable and reliable, who can operate independently and be trusted to run their area well.
You will bring:
- 7+ years’ experience in warehousing, logistics or distribution.
- Strong forklift experience (counterbalance and reach essential).
- Experience with container devanning, inbound goods and dispatch operations.
- Proven experience in inventory control, receipting and stock investigation.
- Confidence working in WMS / ERP systems and RF scanning (e.g. dotWMS, NetSuite or similar).
- Experience communicating with freight forwarders, transport providers and internal stakeholders.
- A strong understanding of warehouse health and safety practices.
- Natural leadership qualities – comfortable guiding others and setting standards, even without the title.
- A hands-on mindset – willing to roll up your sleeves and lead from the floor.
