Experience & Background

We’re looking for candidates with solid operational grounding and emerging leadership capability:

• Essential
  • 3‑5+ years’ experience in a warehouse, logistics, or fulfilment environment
  • Proven exposure to goods in/out and order processing workflows
  • Experience working with courier systems (DPD strongly preferred)
  • Strong organisational skills and attention to detail
  • Comfortable working in a physically active role

  • Experience in drinks distribution, FMCG, or bonded warehousing
  • Familiarity with inventory systems (e.g. Xero, Shopify, WMS platforms)
  • Forklift licence (or willingness to obtain)

What We’re Looking For

You’re a process‑driven operator who takes pride in getting things right, with a hands‑on approach to leadership – leading from the front rather than stepping back. You’re comfortable dealing with the realities of a busy warehouse, able to solve problems as they arise and keep things moving without drama. You communicate clearly and confidently, coordinating effectively with team members, drivers, and the wider operation to keep everything running as it should.

Why Join Us

We’re a growing, energetic business with a clear focus on product quality and doing things properly. This isn’t a static warehouse role. You’ll have genuine input into how operations are run, with the opportunity to shape processes, improve efficiency, and raise standards as we scale. The team is close‑knitted, hands‑on, and accountable, so you’ll be trusted with real responsibility from day one. For the right person, there’s a clear path to develop into more senior operational roles as the business continues to grow.
