Heavy lifting is involved on a regular basis , and this is often for the duration of the day whilst packing orders in to pallets / crates or prepping orders to dispatch via courier , there will also be a requirement to load customers and , take orders , so some basic computer skills would be advantageous , as would a sociable personality given the nature of the job and dealing with the public / trade , therefore we are really looking to fill this position with someone who is something of an "allrounder" , and who is as efficient in our yard / warehouse , as they are when in the office , and be comfortable in all areas of the workplace , with a responsibility to ensure that the workplace is kept clean and tidy at all times.

Ideally we would prefer any candidates to be forklift trained , as this is a significant part of the job , although some training can be provided if necessary .
