Food Warehouse Operative

Salary: GBP28,150

Shift Detail: 3:00pm - 11:30pm, Sunday to Friday (Any 5 out of 6) 40 hours

Full driving licence essential to progress in this role

Exciting opportunity to work within a small team in our Wigan meat production unit for Carver & Co - part of Sysco GB. You don't need any specific experience - we'll give you all the training you need - including the opportunity to obtain a counter-balance forklift truck licence, but if you've worked in a chilled food production environment before then great!

As part of this small team, you'll be involved in a wide variety of Warehouse and Butchery Operative tasks including picking orders, using machinery to prepare meat, correctly packing and labelling meat products, storing products - both goods in from suppliers and finished goods from production, taking pride in your work environment by maintaining and cleaning equipment, tools and machinery. You'll also be required to document product temperatures and complete basic HACCP paperwork.

You will also use a company van to shuttle product between our Carver & Co Wigan depot and Brakes Warrington depot - so a valid full driving licence is essential.

To join us in this role, you need to be keen and willing to learn meat preparation processes, undertake basic knife skills and operate the machinery safely alongside a skilled butcher. You'll need to have a flexible approach - working well with others as part of this small team to get the job done. This is a varied role where you will be on your feet for long periods of time and there's an element of manual handling so you will need to be able to bend and lift the produce.

In return we offer a great basic salary, generous holiday allowance with the option to purchase more, pension and huge discounts on award- winning products. In addition, you'll have the opportunity to further enhance your skills through our Learning & Development programmes.

People join us for the stability and security. But they stay for our fun and friendly culture that supports everyone to be the best they can be. Join us and discover all sorts of opportunities to develop your career with us, as well as a range of great benefits.
