Description:
Warehouse Manager - Twilight Shift - Poole - £34,000-£40,000
TeamJobs are recruiting for an experienced Warehouse Manager to join a well-established, family-run food distribution business in Poole.
This is a great opportunity for a hands-on Warehouse Manager who enjoys leading from the front. You'll have ownership of the twilight operation, managing a team of 10-16 people and making sure everything is picked, packed and ready for the first deliveries of the morning.
This isn't a desk-based management role. We're looking for someone who can lead the team, hold high standards and get stuck in when needed.
Hours & Salary
£34,000-£40,000 per annum
5:00pm-2:30am
45 hours per week
Sunday-Friday, with one night off each week
What you'll be doing
Taking ownership of the twilight warehouse operation
Leading and motivating a team of 10-16 Warehouse Operatives
Ensuring orders are picked accurately and ready for despatch by 2:00am
Managing performance, attendance, productivity and standards
Working hands-on with the team when required
Managing rotas, reviews, recruitment, investigations and disciplinaries
Monitoring picking accuracy and warehouse efficiency
Supporting the move from paper pick lists to handheld scanners
Working closely with Warehouse and Transport teams to ensure a smooth handover
Maintaining high standards of health & safety and housekeeping
What we're looking for
Warehouse management, shift management or supervisory experience
Experience leading teams in a busy warehouse/distribution environment
Previous night or twilight shift experience
Confident people management skills - you'll need to be comfortable having difficult conversations and holding standards
A hands-on approach and willingness to support the operation
Experience with warehouse systems, scanners or process improvements would be beneficial
Food, FMCG, chilled, frozen or short shelf-life experience would be a great advantage
Counterbalance/Reach Forklift licence advantageous - training can be provided
We're looking for someone with the right attitude and mindset - a strong people manager who can take ownership, lead from the front and keep a busy warehouse operation running smoothly.
If you're an experienced Warehouse Manager, Night Shift Manager, Warehouse Shift Manager or Senior Warehouse Supervisor looking for your next step, we'd love to hear from you.
Apply today and the TeamJobs team will be in touch.
