Would you like to join our friendly and hard working team at Lewes BSS? Come and work for us as a Warehouse Assistant and enjoy great company benefits and opportunities for career progression.


BSS is the UK’s market-leading distributor of pipeline and heating solutions for construction projects ranging from tall iconic buildings to local schools. We have a nationwide network of over 60 branches covering the UK and our service and know-how is unmatched. From technical support teams to our experienced branch staff – we’re on hand with the right advice and support.


What you’ll do

  • As an integral member of the team, you’ll support our branch operation by assisting our customers with their orders, offloading supplier deliveries into stock, and picking and packing products. You will be required to maintain a clean and safe working environment and be happy to challenge unsafe practices. 


  • The majority of our customers work Monday to Friday and some enjoy an early start, so our working hours reflect this and the bonus is you get your weekends free!


  • Training will be given on both Counterbalance and Overhead Crane after the 6 month probation period.


Is this you?

When it comes to your existing skills and experience, personality is the first thing we look for. You will be provided with all the training and support needed. What we want is someone who has a can-do attitude, is quick to learn, and loves working as part of a team. If you have worked within a trade or have customer service experience this is a bonus!


What's in it for you?

You’ll have access to our industry leading learning and development programmes which will assist your growth within the business. We want to support you with whatever career goals you have!


We also offer an attractive benefits package which includes

  • Competitive salary depending on your experience

  • 22 days annual leave plus bank holidays

  • Discount at Toolstation along with special discounts at Travis Perkins

  • Contributory pension scheme

  • Discounts across a number of shopping and food retailers.

Right from the start of your career with us, you’ll be supported in your development. You’ll join our Service and Know How Programme, a 12 month Apprenticeship that will give you tools to be successful in your role. Over your apprenticeship, you’ll explore our safety culture, the products we sell, the services we provide and understand more about our customers.


Through 1:1 coaching and mentoring, you’ve got a fantastic support network that will support you, not only through the apprenticeship programme, but your day to day development.


Over the year, you will build the foundations for your future career as well as gaining a nationally recognised qualification. With apprenticeships covering 90% of our roles, there’s also multiple development opportunities to fast track your career within our Group.


About us

We’re proud to be a part of the Travis Perkins plc team. But that’s not simply due to the size, scale or success of the group. It’s down to the values we share as one team – a team that includes other leading brands such as Benchmarx, Keyline, CCF and Toolstation. Despite our size, we have the values of a family run business and the mindset and ambition of a forward thinking Company. 


You must be 18+ years of age to apply!


You be you, it makes us, us!
