Warehouse Team Manager - Nights

Job Description

Warehouse Team Manager

Salary: £38,442

44 Hours

Shift Available: (Nights) 

Sunday to Thurday

Start time 22:00

If you are as ambitious as we are and you’re looking to progress a career in warehouse operations, join us as a Warehouse Team Manager at our Dagenham Depot.

You’ll be responsible for ensuring your team of warehouse operatives are working safely and efficiently, and that key targets are being achieved. You will lead by example and drive high performance through great communication, teamwork and building strong working relationships. You will work closely with the shift manager to plan workload and resource effectively, as well as developing the skills of your team members to support their career aspirations and increase shift capability. There’s paperwork and administration to complete as part of this role, so you’ll need an eye for detail and have the ability to work accurately and in a timely manner.

The above position will be Sunday to Thursday on the Night Shift, but some flexibility is required. You will enjoy working in a busy role which requires you to think on your feet and pro-actively problem solve - dealing with operational challenges as they arise, escalating to more senior managers if necessary. You will want to make a difference and proactively look for ways to make improvements and challenge current ways of working.

To join us as a Warehouse Team Manager you will have previous experience of leading a team in a fast paced, time pressured environment. Experience within a warehouse operation would be advantageous but is not essential. What’s key is your ability and desire to learn - understanding the business and operation quickly.

In return we offer a great package including basic salary, generous holiday allowance plus the option to purchase more, pension plus huge discounts on award- winning products. In addition, you’ll have the opportunity to further enhance your skills through our Learning & Development programmes. In Brakes you can really be anything you want to be!

People join us for the stability and security. But they stay for our fun and friendly culture that supports everyone to be the best they can be. Join us and discover all sorts of opportunities to develop your career with us, as well as a range of great benefits.

Built on a passion for food and feeding the nation, at Fresh Direct we are dedicated to making life as easy and efficient for the chefs, cooks and caterers we serve across the country. We are the leading specialist supplier of locally and globally sourced fresh produce and dairy across Great Britain, bringing the best of the seasons to chefs’ menus.
