Well Placed HR is recruiting for a growing Cornwall-based business looking for an experienced Warehouse Team Leader to take responsibility for the day-to-day running of a busy warehouse operation.

The warehouse manages around 4,500 stock lines, with daily deliveries across Cornwall as well as nationwide carrier and pallet network deliveries. You'll be leading the warehouse team, keeping goods moving, making sure customer orders are dispatched on time and working closely with the wider business to keep everything running smoothly.

The role

- Take responsibility for the day-to-day running of the warehouse.

- Lead and support the warehouse team to achieve KPIs and deadlines.

- Manage goods in, goods out, picking, packing and dispatch.

- Coordinate deliveries via company vans, carriers and pallet networks.

 - Work closely with purchasing to manage stock levels, space and shortages.

- Act as the main link between the warehouse and office teams, resolving issues and keeping communication flowing.

- Complete goods in/goods out paperwork and maintain accurate records.

- Carry out stock counts and help resolve stock discrepancies.

- Keep the warehouse clean, organised and safe.

- Complete health and safety checks and highlight any potential risks.

- Manage holidays and cover for warehouse and driver staff.

- Provide occasional cover for the main delivery driver when required.

- Identify opportunities to improve processes and share ideas with the General Manager.

- Act as a keyholder for the warehouse.

For this Warehouse Team Leader position, we are looking for:

Someone with at least three years' warehouse experience who is ready to take on more responsibility. Previous Team Leader or supervisory experience would be great, but isn't essential if you've got the right attitude and are ready for the next step.

You will ideally have experience of picking, packing, goods in/goods out and dispatch, along with confidence using digital delivery or warehouse systems. A forklift licence would be useful, although training can be provided.

You'll need a full UK driving licence and either experience of van driving or a willingness to learn. More importantly, we're looking for someone who is practical, reliable, friendly and happy to get stuck in.

The business places a real emphasis on developing its people, so this is a good opportunity for someone who wants to build their career and take on more responsibility as the company continues to grow.

This Warehouse Team Leader opportunity is:

- A Permanent, full-time position.

- With working hours of Monday-Friday, 7.00am-4.30pm.

- Offering genuine progression and development opportunities.

- A varied, hands-on role within a growing business.
