This is a pivotal role where your leadership will directly impact productivity, safety, and team morale. If you have proven experience in warehouse management, a keen eye for Health & Safety compliance, and the drive to exceed KPIs, we want to hear from you.
Our client is a respected name in UK logistics, operating a state-of-the-art facility that serves a vast retail network.

Key Responsibilities
- Team Leadership & Daily Management: Directly supervise a team of 15-25 warehouse operatives, including pickers, packers, and forklift drivers. Delegate tasks, conduct briefings, and monitor performance to ensure daily targets are met or exceeded.
- Health, Safety & Compliance: Enforce strict adherence to all site-specific Health & Safety regulations, including PPE use, manual handling procedures, and forklift zone safety. Conduct regular safety walks and audits, reporting any incidents or near-misses immediately.
- Inventory & Stock Control: Oversight of accurate receiving, put-away, picking, and dispatch processes. Liaise with the inventory control team to investigate and resolve discrepancies, ensuring system accuracy meets 99.8%+ targets.
- Process Improvement & Reporting: Analyse workflow data to identify bottlenecks and propose efficiency improvements. Prepare and submit end-of-shift reports on productivity, absenteeism, and any operational issues to the Warehouse Manager.
- Training & Development: Mentor new starters, provide ongoing coaching to team members, and ensure all staff are trained on relevant equipment (e.g., MHE) and updated operational procedures.
Essential Requirements
- Proven Supervisory Experience: Minimum of 2 years in a warehouse team leader or supervisor role, ideally within a high-volume 3PL, retail, or FMCG distribution environment.
- Health & Safety Certification: A solid understanding of warehouse H&S is mandatory. IOSH Managing Safely or similar qualification is a significant advantage.
- Technical & System Proficiency: Competent using Warehouse Management Systems (WMS) and MS Office (Excel for reporting). Experience with voice-picking or RF scanning technology is highly desirable.
- Leadership & Communication Skills: A natural leader with the ability to motivate a diverse team, resolve conflict, and communicate clearly with both operatives and senior management.
- Flexibility & Logistics: Must be flexible to work shifts (including earlies, lates, and potential weekends). Own reliable transport is essential due to the location of the Lutterworth LE17 site.

The primary shift for this position is a 4-on-4-off rotating pattern, covering both days (06:00-18:00) and nights (18:00-06:00). However, we also have clients in the area offering traditional Monday-Friday early (06:00-14:00) or late (14:00-22:00) shifts. Your shift preference will be discussed in detail during your initial screening call with your consultant to ensure we match you with the most suitable opportunity.
