Requirements

What we're looking for

This is a key customer facing role, so you will need to be enthusiastic and have great interpersonal skills. A fork lift truck licence would be desirable, however not essential as training can be provided. What we are looking for is someone with a friendly and flexible personality who is happy to communicate face to face with customers.

A competitive salary and benefits which include 22 days holiday, colleague bonus and colleague discounts. We also have a number of online discounts at leading retailers from theme parks to eating out and cinemas. Our working hours also offer a great work life balance - most of our customers choose to enjoy their weekends and bank holidays which means you can too!

The role

The key thing is to be helpful and friendly - the perfect assistant for customers that you'll likely get to know by name. You'll also be responsible for ensuring the safe and correct movement of materials around the branch. This will include loading and unloading customer and company vehicles, offloading supplier deliveries into stock and picking orders. Safety is a priority and you'll make sure that standards never slip.

Joining our friendly and hard working family as a Yard Assistant, you'll help customers choose from a huge range of high quality products.
