About the Role

As a key member of the Distribution Centre Management Team, you will be responsible for leading a team of colleagues to deliver exceptional Warehouse Service routines and standards. Your primary focus will be on ensuring accurate end-to-end Warehouse Service operations, collaborating with the supply chain process to resolve supplier-related matters, and prioritizing seasonal, trade, and promotional events to maximize sales within Stores.

Key Responsibilities
  • Manage a team to deliver accurate Warehouse Service routines and standards in line with the operating model.
  • Support the end-to-end supply chain process by working collaboratively to resolve supplier-related matters.
  • Prioritize and deliver seasonal, trade, and promotional events to maximize sales within Stores, effectively planning resource and equipment.
  • Work in collaboration with Warehouse Service Team and Shift Managers/Duty Managers to ensure operating procedures are best-in-class and focus on providing Stores with the service they require.
  • Lead the team to work productively, coaching, supporting, and sharing best practice to meet or exceed targets and remain efficient at all times.
  • Focus the team on delivering accurate goods to Stores to improve product availability and customer satisfaction.
  • Meet the needs of colleagues in the team by using people routines and delivering great leadership.
  • Deliver all operational routines and make decisions that have customers' needs at the heart of what we do.
  • Operate in partnership with the Distribution Centre Management team and be a great role model.
  • Analyze data, establish root cause, and put into place corrective improvement measures.
  • Deliver exceptional standards across all operational areas of the Warehouse.
  • Provide a strong presence 'shoulder to shoulder' with colleagues in Goods In, Assembly, Over the Bank (OTB), FLT, and Goods Out, being proactive with problem-solving and coaching colleagues in the moment.
  • Work closely with the Delivery Service Team to ensure we deliver the Transport Plan together.
  • Make decisions that require Management intervention as referred by Warehouse Service Coordinators for the good of customers and Tesco.
  • Follow our Business Code of Conduct and Data Protection Law, always acting with integrity and due diligence.

What You'll Need
  • You will connect with your colleagues, sharing knowledge, experience, and best practice. You will understand the importance of what you do and work collaboratively to deliver results. You will make time to build strong relationships, reaching out across the business to network with colleagues and find new ways to improve what matters.
  • You will be warm and welcoming in every interaction with customers and colleagues. You will respond to people appropriately and ensure they feel seen, heard, and recognized. Through listening and taking appropriate action, you will gain commitment from your team.
  • You will use your energy and resilience to keep momentum going when working in challenging environments, keeping focus on your objectives. You will act quickly, making decisions based on what is right for customers and colleagues to ensure Distribution Centre standards are maintained at all times.
  • Your colleagues will see you doing the right thing both when things are going well and when times are tough. You will know how to be at your best and inspire confidence in those around you.
  • You will be aware of what our competitors are doing and continually identify ways to improve our Distribution Centre for customers. You will be keen to build and deliver new initiatives, providing feedback on how they could be further improved.

About Us
Our vision at Tesco is to become every customer's favourite way to shop, whether they are at home or out on the move. Our core purpose is 'Serving our customers, communities, and planet a little better every day'. Serving means more than a transactional relationship with our customers. It means acting as a responsible and sustainable business for all stakeholders, for the communities we are part of, and for the planet.

We know life looks a little different for each of us. That's why at Tesco, we always welcome chats about flexible working. Some people are at the start of their careers, some want the freedom to do the things they love. Others are going through life-changing moments like becoming a carer, nearing retirement, adapting to parenthood, or something else. So, talk to us throughout your application about how we can support.
