Warehouse Assistant/forklift Driver

4 weeks ago


Newbury, United Kingdom Atkins and Potts Ltd Full time

We are looking for a full-time Warehouse Assistant/Forklift Driver in our Goods in/Goods out department to join our small and friendly team.

We are a rapidly growing company in a very secure industry and are BRCGS AA accredited.

The hours are 37.5 hours per week, 07:30-16:00 Monday to Friday. There are two 15-minute tea breaks and a 30-minute lunch break which are unpaid. The role will entail some late shift working.

The salary is £13.00 per hour. Overtime is often available. Wages are paid monthly.

We are a family-owned ambient food manufacturer of high quality chutneys, condiments, dressings, and cooking sauces. We are currently based in a semi-rural area where there is no suitable public transport, so transport to RG20 0PW is a necessary requirement.

During 2023 we are moving to a new site in Newbury at RG14 5PX. The new site is four times larger (plus it is a much nicer building) and allows the business to continue its rapid growth. Once we have moved to the new site, the warehouse team will expand to include pick, pack and despatch of our own stock - currently our stock is stored off site at a 3rd party warehouse.

Atkins & Potts has a strong team environment where everyone helps and supports each other.

There is a lot to learn and we provide training. Many of the team are multi-skilled. The most important things to us are a can do attitude, keen to learn and be trained. It’s all about being a team player who cares about the products they are making and the people they are working with. As we are a food factory, hygiene is very important and we practice ‘clean as you go’. There is a lot of cleaning and everybody cleans.

The role involves a mixture of loading, unloading (FLT), booking in/putting away stock, picking, packing, keeping the warehouse clean and sometimes helping stock checking.

Key tasks include:

- Check condition of FLTs and the completion of daily check lists
- Receive and despatch all goods to and from site. The volume of receipts and dispatches during the night is a small fraction of the day shift volumes
- Wrapping and labelling pallets correctly (we have a pallet wrapper) ready for despatch
- Ensure the picking and packaging of products for dispatch and shipping are observed to the required standard: Sealed correctly: Dated Correctly: Correctly Documented: Pallet Stacked correctly and that deadlines are met
- Help manage the storage of all stock and ensure that appropriate stock control records are maintained
- Help achieve daily dispatch targets for the department
- Safe disposal and compacting of waste and packaging
- Keeping the warehouse clean and tidy and completing cleaning check documentation
- Supply the kitchen with raw materials and packaging against a daily picklist, and as required
- Complete accurate daily stock check

We are a great company with an exciting future ahead - come and be part of it. We are planning a major expansion this year.

Please note that we do not offer sponsorship or relocation packages.

Please feel free to ask any questions when you apply.
