What you'll do
As a BNDC Operator, you will be a key part of the team, helping to keep our warehouse running smoothly. You’ll be driving counterbalance trucks and operating electric pedestrian pallet trucks so licences are required for this role.

You'll have a passion for quality and be able to follow all the correct processes and procedures in line with legal requirements. You will have a good understanding and positive approach to safety.
You’ll work as part of a great team too, helping everyone to achieve the daily targets. You will have the guidance and support from your Team Leader and Supervisor as well as training from our onsite Warehouse Trainer, MHE assessors and 'Buddy' system.

You’re able to work in cold/frozen areas of the warehouse (warm PPE provided)
You’re experienced in following processes and procedures and working in a fast-paced environment where timescales and targets are important
Once trained, you’ll be able to keep up with pace of work
