This isn't just an ordinary warehouse

We use innovative and state-of-the-art technology, and joining us as a Warehouse Operative means you'll be working for the world's largest and fastest-growing online grocery retailer in a safe, clean, fast-paced, warehouse environment.

Our first employees will play a critical role in getting the site ready to operate. This means initially you will be a general Warehouse Operative working in our Inbound team; unpacking, inspecting, and scanning our storage totes ahead of taking deliveries, and receiving and decanting goods into the totes.

There is no need to have any previous experience as you will receive full training, but you will need to have a good level of fitness, be able to work in multiple temperatures, from chilled to ambient (minimum 2oC), have a good eye for detail and be able to work independently but also be a good team player.
