Warehouse Assistant

A busy and fast paced business with great benefits, and plenty of opportunities for career progression – join BSS as a Warehouse Assistant and share our success and good times with a hard-working, friendly bunch of people.

The role  

Come and join our team - there are 10 of us here, all delivering a great service to our customers. We have x vehicles in the branch and a lot of regular long standing customers together with the new ones and the ones we see less frequently - but we strive to deliver an exceptional experience to every single one of them.

Our Warehouse Assistants must bring a “can do” attitude along with flexibility - every day is different! One minute you will be loading vehicles ready for the drivers to deliver to a range of different places, other days you will be unloading huge supplier deliveries, picking orders or serving customers on the trade counter. In addition, in this branch you will support our colleagues working on the trade counter with face to face customer interaction. The role calls for someone who enjoys working with people and has the enthusiasm it takes to deliver more than just goods, but a fantastic service too. 

The person

This is a customer facing role, the way in which you represent the company is just as important as the products you will pick, sell and deliver. A positive attitude and professional manner is a must. A confident customer focused demeanour is essential as is the passion to deliver a great service with your team colleagues every day. Ideally you will have warehouse experience or have a background in face to face customer service. But above all you will be personable, have a desire to learn and have a motivated work ethic.

The benefits

• 22 days annual leave plus bank holiday (extra day at milestone anniversaries)
• Annual salary reviews
• Opportunity to earn a branch/performance based bonus
• Contributory pension scheme
• Life Assurance and ShareSave scheme
• Colleague discounts across a variety of Group businesses including special discounts of 20% in Tool Station and Tool Hire
• HUNDREDS of discounts with a wide range of partners - food shopping, holidays, eating out, cinema, retail and so much more
