Summary

Are you an experienced Counterbalance FLT Driver searching for steady weekday work with the chance to progress into a permanent role? We’re looking for dependable forklift operators to join a busy furniture warehouse, offering regular daytime hours and competitive pay.

This opportunity is ideal for someone who enjoys a hands-on warehouse role, takes pride in working safely and wants a consistent routine without the need for regular weekend shifts.

You’ll play an important part in the daily warehouse operation, using a counterbalance forklift to move, organise and position furniture products safely. Your responsibilities will include loading and unloading incoming and outgoing deliveries, transporting stock around the site and ensuring goods are handled with care.

You’ll also carry out routine equipment checks, report any faults and help keep the warehouse clean, tidy and well organised. Alongside your forklift duties, you may be asked to support general warehouse activities and assist colleagues to ensure work is completed efficiently.

You must hold a valid Counterbalance FLT licence and have previous experience operating a counterbalance forklift. Any experience using a Flexi forklift would be an advantage, but it is not essential.

A responsible attitude towards health and safety, good attention to detail and reliability are important. You’ll need to be comfortable working independently as well as alongside other warehouse staff. If you’re travelling from outside the local area, a full UK driving licence and your own transport are essential.

This is an ongoing, full-time temporary position, with the opportunity to secure a permanent role for the right person.

The working pattern is Monday to Friday, 07:00–16:00. These regular daytime shifts provide consistency throughout the week, with no standard weekend work.

You’ll receive £13.75 per hour, with the opportunity to accrue up to 28 days of annual leave per year. The role also offers regular Monday-to-Friday hours, weekends free and the potential to move into permanent employment.

If you have the required forklift experience and are ready for a new opportunity, apply today.

Please note: Visa sponsorship is not available for this position.
