We’re in the process of growing our workforce to help us build stronger stock levels across our network. As such we have an opportunity for an experienced Yard Operative / Shunter with mobile plant experience to join our busy team in Pollington.

You will also support wider yard activities, including safely and efficiently loading and unloading vehicles while supporting the smooth running of overall yard operations, maintaining high standards of housekeeping, ensuring full compliance with company policies, and promoting best working practices at all times. Reporting to the Operations Team Manager, you will work in a performance-driven environment where safety, quality, waste reduction, and KPI targets are key priorities, and you will be expected to actively contribute to maintaining these standards.

A Class 1 HGV licence would be advantageous, as training may be provided to operate shunter trucks to support the safe and efficient movement of products around the site. Full training will be provided where transferable skills from other industries are identified.
