**What you'll do**:

- You’ll support the Warehouse and Transport operations teams to achieve a brilliant service level to our customers
- You’ll work in an environment of having an overview of the operations, a little like being in a control tower, controlling the flow of work to help us to achieve the best service and efficiency at the same time

- You’ll be confident in working with many and varied systems, whether they are Automation systems and robotics
- You’ll co-ordinate pick wave releases and advise managers on resource allocation to best achieve a smooth running operation to achieve our goals

- You’ll need to be flexible and expect the roles and responsibilities to adapt as the operation matures

**What you'll need**:

- Ace with computers and comfortable with adopting and promoting the use of new tech
- Flexible to work and lead shifts allocated between 06:00 - 22:00 any day of the week
- You focus on output, not input, what’s important verses what’s not important and obsessively strive to make things better
- Tip top organisation skills. You’re definitely a bit obsessive about whatever you do being the very best there is, checking you’ve got things right. Its your job, not someone else’s
- You love people, you'll be working amongst other awesome humans
- You’ll need to be flexible and expect the role and responsibilities to adapt as the operation matures (like a fine wine)
- Previous warehouse or Transport scheduling experience is an advantage
- Full Clean Driving license (you'll hop into driving & warehouse to support)
