Order Picker (Cold Store)

Pick it right, pack it neat, send it out: that's the job at a building-supplies depot in Kempton Park. It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

The site is in Kempton Park; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. There's a probation period of three months before the contract is confirmed.
