What you'll actually do

  • Stack finished orders on pallets and stretch-wrap them tight
  • Pack cartons, add fillers and seal them with tape guns
  • Move pallets with a hand pallet jack to the dispatch lane
  • Scan every item so the system shows the right stock count
  • Label boxes with the correct waybill and route sticker
  • Replenish empty pick faces from overstock racking

You'll need

  • Willing to wear safety boots, a reflector vest and gloves
  • Punctual, with reliable transport home after late shifts
  • You can read product codes and count accurately
  • Happy to work shifts, weekends and public holidays in peak season
  • You're fit enough to lift boxes up to 25kg all shift

Helpful, not essential

  • Experience in a cold-chain or freezer environment

On offer
