Warehouse Supervisor

Location: Speak, Liverpool
Job Type: Full-Time, Permanent

Interaction Recruitment are currently recruiting for a hands-on Warehouse Supervisor / Production Overseer / Site Safety Lead to join our client’s busy operation in Speak, Liverpool.

This is a genuinely practical, floor-based supervisory role. The successful candidate will take daily ownership of goods-in, warehouse organisation, production support, dispatch, equipment operation and site safety.

This is not an office-based warehouse management position. You will be expected to spend the majority of your working day on the warehouse floor, in goods-in, dispatch, production and yard areas — personally moving stock, operating equipment and leading by example.

As Warehouse Supervisor, you will be responsible for ensuring the warehouse and wider operation runs safely, efficiently and to a high standard.

Your duties will include:

• Receiving and unloading incoming deliveries safely.

• Operating the forklift truck and pallet trucks as part of your daily duties.

• Unpacking, checking and counting deliveries against purchase orders.

• Identifying and managing shortages, damaged goods, incorrect items and discrepancies.

• Labelling and correctly storing incoming stock.

• Moving stock between goods-in, warehouse, production, quarantine and dispatch areas.

• Picking, packing, counting and preparing outgoing goods.

• Building, wrapping, labelling and staging pallets for dispatch.

• Loading courier collections and ensuring the correct freight and paperwork are controlled.

• Keeping production supplied with the correct materials and components.

• Removing waste, empty pallets and packaging to maintain good workflow.

• Maintaining high standards of housekeeping across the warehouse, yard and loading areas.

• Carrying out daily equipment and fire-safety checks.

• Ensuring walkways, fire exits, access routes and operational areas remain clear.

• Enforcing PPE and safe working practices across the site.

• Challenging unsafe working practices, poor stacking, blocked walkways and equipment misuse.

• Maintaining accurate goods-in, dispatch, equipment and safety records.

The ideal candidate will have:

• Proven experience in a hands-on warehouse, goods-in, dispatch or logistics environment.

• Previous warehouse supervisory or team-leading experience.

• Practical forklift truck experience with recognised operator training/competence.

• Confidence using pallet trucks and other warehouse equipment.

• Experience unloading, checking and putting away deliveries.

• Good understanding of stock control, purchase orders and delivery discrepancies.

• Experience building and securing pallets for dispatch.

• A strong understanding of warehouse housekeeping and safe working practices.

• The physical ability and willingness to be hands-on throughout the working day.

• A proactive approach to identifying and resolving operational issues.

• The confidence to supervise others, enforce standards and challenge unsafe behaviour.

• A lead-by-example attitude — someone who is happy to get stuck in and do the job alongside the team.

This position would suit someone who enjoys being on the warehouse floor rather than behind a desk.

You will be expected to personally handle stock, pallets and deliveries, operate warehouse equipment, support production and maintain site standards while supervising the wider team.

If you're a practical Warehouse Supervisor who leads from the front and takes pride in keeping a busy operation safe, organised and running efficiently, we'd like to hear from you.
