We are looking for a Stores Person to join our team!

In this role, you will be responsible for ensuring that all stock is accurately maintained, organised, and readily available to support operational needs. You will work closely with colleagues to manage inventory levels, process incoming and outgoing materials, and uphold high standards of safety and efficiency within the stores environment.

This position is based at our West London depot, however, flexibility is essential, as you will occasionally need to travel to our Reading and Slough depot.

We are looking for someone who is proactive, organised, and committed to delivering outstanding service. If you thrive in a fast-paced environment and enjoy working as part of a collaborative team, we’d love to hear from you.

Responsibilities will include, but are not limited to:

• Assisting the resource controller with all ordering and deliveries to the site, and manage stock levels by using the business processes and systems to good effect.
• Work with our logistics providers to resolve any stock and delivery related issues, including taking action to resolve any materials shortages.
• Organise and maintain the depot yard areas. This includes managing the recycling centre, ensuring safety standards are met, completing yard audits and reporting any risks and incidents such as oil spills.
• Act as a First Aider on site (you will be supported to gain/maintain a First Aid at Work qualification).
• Maintain registers of COSHH substances, and support with tools and equipment inspections and updating records where required.

You have:

• Previous experience in Stores, excellent communication skills and a passion for customer service.
• A diligent attitude towards safety and accuracy.
• Good time management and organisational skills and the ability to foster positive working relationships with colleagues at all levels.
• Part of your role will be maintaining system records and ensuring data is up to date, and therefore you should be comfortable using IT systems, with a good knowledge of Microsoft packages such as Word, Outlook and Excel.
• A Forklift Licence and relevant Street works qualifications would be of benefit, but are not essential and training will be provided.

A full UK driving licence is a requirement. Whilst there is no company vehicle provided with this role, transport will be made available for necessary travel between sites and to make any urgent deliveries.
