StokeonTrent, United Kingdom Buildbase Full time

**Yard Operative in Stoke on Trent**

**We are Buildbase**

We are Buildbase, we employ approximately 2300 brilliant people and we work from around 155 branches around the UK.

**What we do**

What we do is really simple, we sell building materials to the trade and public. We’re a ‘roll your sleeves up’ business with a can-do attitude and we take pride in serving our local tradespeople and communities.

**The role of a Yard Operative**

As a Yard Operative, you will be working in the yard and warehouse, making sure our customers get the stock that they need as well as driving our forklift trucks and loading our lorries.

We are happy to discuss the possibility of working flexibly. Please talk to us during the interview process about what works for you. We can’t promise to give you exactly what you want, but we do promise not to judge you for asking.

**What you need**

You'll need to be someone who isn't afraid of hard work and is a team player. Previous experience working in a busy yard environment would be preferable as the yard is one of the busiest areas of the branch so you would need to be willing to work under pressure to ensure customers are served in an efficient and friendly manner. If you're someone who is happy to get stuck in then we'd love to hear from you. A forklift truck licence would be an advantage for this role but training can be given.

**What you’ll get in return**
- 23 days annual leave, plus bank holidays
- The chance to join Grab - our one stop shop for all things discounts, benefits, communications and recognition
- Company bonus scheme
- A contributory pension scheme
- Awards where our colleagues are recognised quarterly and annually
