The role

Join us as a Warehouse Operative and you'll be a key part of the Greggs Team, preparing orders for our shops to make sure they have all the products they need to keep our customers satisfied.

You'll work with a great, close-knit team, in a fast-paced, high-performance environment where timescales and targets are important. You'll be handling boxes, picking and packing products, and pushing/pulling cages around the warehouse.

You'll need to make sure our vehicles are at the right temperature ready to load, and products are loaded into the correct compartment; ambient, chill or frozen.

Working in a food environment means that you could be exposed to flour and dust. You will also be expected to work in a chilled/frozen environment.

We'll provide you with all the training and support you'll need to see your career rise.

How you'll work

Contract: Temporary You will be contracted to work 39 hours per week, generally on a 5 from 7 rotating pattern on a dayshift. Exact times can vary but typically involve starting around 6am.

Working hours: 39

Pay frequency: Hourly

About you

Ideally, you'll have previously worked as a Warehouse Operative within a similar environment. You'll also need:

  • To be comfortable working in a physical role, lifting, carrying, pushing and pulling of cages, as well as other manual tasks
  • To be able to work in cold/frozen areas of the warehouse (warm PPE will be provided)
  • Be supportive of an inclusive culture - recognising and valuing that difference is good

Experience of using SAP systems would also be beneficial but isn't essential.

If you're enthusiastic, reliable, comfortable with working shifts that could include nights, weekends and bank holidays, apply now to start your career at Greggs!
