Warehouse Operative

Real Living Wage £9.90 + Benefits

Peterborough, Cambridgeshire

39214

This vacancy has now expired. Please see similar roles below...

We are BSS. You’ve probably never heard of us before, and that’s OK. We’re part of the Travis Perkins group, and we are the UK’s largest distributor of pipeline and heating solutions. 

Our branch in Peterborough in Centurion Business Centre is currently looking for a new team member to join us on a casual basis, starting ASAP and ending in August. In an ideal world, we’d look for someone to work Monday to Friday 6am-12pm but we appreciate that the world is not ideal, and therefore can offer some flexibility for the right person. We’re proud to be a “real living wage empoyer” which means this position pays £9.90 p/h.

We’re not looking for experience. What we are looking for is someone with a customer-centric mindset and a desire to do a great job, everything else can be taught! 

What Do We Do?

Imagine the boiler room in a hospital or school, we supply all of the pipework and components required - from industrial sized boilers to miles and miles worth of large tube, we do it all! Our customers are typically heating contractors that focus on large-scale projects for their own customers, and we are their supplier. Simple, right!? Want to know more? Click here!

What Will You Be Doing?

Our branches are usually attached to a small warehouse which houses all of our stock. From pipes and tubes, fittings and components, to boilers and tools - we cover the lot. We’re looking for someone who is happy to work in a physically demanding environment, working as part of a team to keep the warehouse running smoothly, efficiently, and most importantly, safely. 

The successful applicant would be responsible for organising stock and putting it in the correct locations, loading and unloading branch vehicles as and when required, and general housekeeping duties.

What’s In It For Me?

We’re proud to be a “real living wage employer”. We are also part of the Travis Perkins group, one of the UK’s recognised “top employers” since 2010. We pride ourselves on looking after our people and being a great place to work. All new starters will be thoroughly inducted into our business, and in most cases, you’ll be partnered with one of our experienced colleagues who will be responsible for your development throughout the time you're with us.

We’re driving to become a truly inclusive employer. We want everyone to be at their best and it’s our ambition that everyone within our Group feels safe, welcome and confident to be their authentic selves. 

You be you, it makes us, us.
