Warehouse Manager

Location: South East London (on site)
Salary: £50,000–£55,000 + benefits
Hours: Permanent, full time, Monday–Friday, 9am–6pm
Essential: Counterbalance forklift licence

Are you a warehouse supervisor or assistant manager ready for your first full management role? A growing online retailer of high-value products needs someone bright and switched on, who leads from the front and is happy on the warehouse floor every day.

The role

• Run daily operations: goods in, put-away, picking, packing and dispatch
• Get stuck in with everyday warehouse work alongside a small team – this is hands-on, not desk-based
• Drive the counterbalance forklift for deliveries and loading
• Keep stock accurate on the WMS, with regular cycle counts
• Look after valuable, fragile items from arrival to dispatch
• Manage rotas, training and health and safety
• Work with couriers to hit dispatch deadlines

You'll need

• A valid counterbalance forklift licence (RTITB, ITSSAR or AITT) – essential
• Solid warehouse experience, including supervising a team
• Happy to roll up your sleeves – picking, packing and loading are all part of the job
• To be bright, switched on and quick to pick things up
• Great people skills – you motivate a team and get on with everyone
• Strong systems skills: confident with a WMS and stock control
• Good Excel skills, including building your own formulas
• A sharp eye for detail and a calm head at busy times
• Able to pass a basic DBS check (you don't need one already)

Nice to have: a background in e-commerce, luxury goods or fragile items.

Why apply?

• A really interesting business, handling products you won't see in most warehouses
• Genuine progression as the company grows
• A real step up, with full ownership of the warehouse
• Supportive senior operations team behind you
