Job Description

Job Title: Stores Operative with FLT (Counterbalance)

Location: Stafford Park

Pay Rate: £14.00 per hour

Start Date: Monday 11th May

End date: End of July

Pertemps are currently looking for a reliable and hands-on Stores Operative to support our busy stores team over the coming months.

This is a fast-paced and varied role where no two days are the same. You'll be working closely with our existing Storekeeper to keep goods moving efficiently through the business during a particularly busy period.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Unloading deliveries and checking goods against delivery notes
  • Booking goods into the system (ERP experience preferred)
  • Moving and organising stock within stores and across the shop floor
  • Handling a wide range of items - from small components (nuts, bolts, fittings) to large machined parts and fabrications
  • Kitting parts for production
  • Packing and preparing orders for dispatch
  • Occasional local collections from suppliers
Requirements:
  • Valid Counterbalance forklift licence (7T preferred, 3.5T minimum)
  • Previous stores/warehouse experience in a manufacturing or engineering environment
  • PC literate with experience using ERP systems (Epicor desirable but not essential)
  • Comfortable working in a physically active, fast-moving environment
  • Flexible and willing to support overtime when required - Time 1/2 Saturdays / Double Time Sundays
The Ideal Candidate:
You'll be someone who thrives in a busy, sometimes unpredictable environment. This role can be interrupted and reactive, so we're looking for someone who can stay organised, keep a positive attitude, and get stuck in.

A strong work ethic is key-but just as important is personality. We're looking for someone who is:
  • Positive, upbeat, and energetic
  • Professional and reliable
  • A team player with a good sense of humour
Additional Info:
  • Overtime opportunities may be available
  • Support required for a stock take at the end of June (weekend work)
