Peterborough, United Kingdom Huws Gray Full time

We are looking for a Yard Operative to join us at Huws Gray Peterborough

If you’re in the trade or have ever tackled a home improvement project, you’ve probably heard of us. We’re the Huws Gray Group and we’re made up of a number of brands, including Huws Gray, Hirebase, Civils & Lintels, The Timber Group, PDM, NDI and Anglia Tool Centre to name a few. Up and down the UK, our branches are serving and supporting our local communities with all their building material needs, but we couldn’t do this without the right people, so why not join us?

We rely on our Yard Operatives to provide excellent service to our customers, through knowledge of our stock and making sure products are ready for deliveries and collections. Working in one of our branches you’ll be part of a team where everyone is putting the effort in to offer brilliant customer service and to get the job done.

Here’s a quick overview of some of the things you can expect to do as a Yard Operative with Huws Gray:
Serving our customers out in the yard, providing a good knowledge of the best products for their projects

Supporting with incoming deliveries, making sure stock in the yard is put away correctly and kept tidy in line with Health & Safety guidelines

Working as a team to help our drivers by loading and unloading vehicles

Safeguarding against loss and theft of stock by being security conscious

We know that you are more than just a CV and embracing everyone’s individuality is what makes us great as a team. We can give you plenty of training and equip you with the tools that you’ll need to succeed as a Yard Operative. Although not essential, a forklift licence would be an advantage for this role.

We know you’re thinking ‘this sounds great, but what’s in it for me?’ Let us tell you:
Competitive rates of pay

24 days annual leave in addition to recognised public and bank holidays

Company attendance and performance bonuses

Company pension scheme - in line with auto enrolment
