Do you have a good understanding of a warehouse and inventory function and how it feeds into a distribution network, plus great problem-solving skills, a common-sense approach and an impressive track record of delivery? Then make the move to Sainsbury’s and let your talent shine, playing a vital role in helping to keep our warehouse operations running smoothly, thus ensuring our shelves are packed full of everything from toilet rolls to prosecco to toothpaste - whenever they’re needed.

You don’t get from being a small shop in 1869 to one of the UK’s most loved retailers without a passion for innovation and a relentless pursuit for better. And that’s where you come in because, right now, we’re looking for a Warehouse Clerk to join our Operational Execution, Supply Chain & Logistics team at our Waltham Point distribution centre.

Keeping our shelves full for our customers depends on us having a terrifically tight team, whether on the shop floor or at our distribution centre, where this particular role is based. Your challenge? To carry out a variety of day-to-day clerical tasks across our Inventory and Warehouse operations, in line with the relevant plans. Day-to-day, you’ll be responsible for controlling stock effectively, including liaising with colleagues across the business to capture feedback on seasonal demand and prioritise customer need. Maintaining and collating accurate warehousing and inventory information, charging stock to stores and suppliers and carrying out inventory wholesale activity - these are just some aspects of this interesting, varied and vital role

So, what do you need to succeed? A good understanding of warehouse processes and warehouse flow, including restrictions like the location for products and weight restricted items, is essential. So is awareness of health and safety regulations and the relevant legislation. Proficient using a range of office IT, including Microsoft programmes and Warehouse Management Systems, you’re used to planning and prioritising your workload to meet deadlines too. What’s more, you have excellent attention to detail and accuracy, plus a proven ability to quickly resolve problems and escalate broader or more complex issues. And, if you’re great at analysing, presenting and sharing data and information and following clear procedures, guidelines and instructions, we should definitely talk.

Sainsbury’s offer a genuine opportunity to progress. Indeed, you’ll gain exposure to different parts of the business which will help widen your skillsets and move into other roles in the future. Everyone gets their own personal development plan too, plus there’s a real commitment to wellbeing, D&I, values and work life balance.

The benefits are really good too - including paid holiday, a colleague discount card after 4 weeks that gives you and a second user 10% on most items in Sainsbury’s, Argos and Habitat. Throughout the year we regularly increase discount at Sainsbury’s and Argos to 15% as an additional benefit and food and hot drinks is provided in colleague areas in all our Depots.
- At Sainsbury’s, we’re a proud equal opportunities employer that values diversity and inclusion at every level of our business. Because when people bring their true selves to work, powerful innovation takes shape. Just know that whoever you are, we are your Sainsbury’s._
