About Us
We are a small, friendly, and rapidly growing business specialising in industrial paint products. We pride ourselves on our supportive team environment and our commitment to our staff. If you are looking for long-term job security, a dependable routine, and a team that genuinely values your hard work, you will fit right in here.
The Role
Responsible for operating a Bendi forklift safely and efficiently within a busy paint manufacturing and warehouse environment. Duties include moving, loading and unloading pallets and materials, ensuring products are stored correctly and safely, and transporting stock between warehouse and production areas.
Key Responsibilities
Operating Forklift safely: strong awareness of health and safety procedures, careful handling of goods, and the ability to operate the forklift confidently while maintaining a clean, organised and efficient working environment.
Inventory Control: Assisting with stock rotation, unloading deliveries, and keeping the warehouse clean and organised.
Maintaining Pace: Working efficiently during standard hours and finding that "second gear" to increase speed during peak busy periods without dropping accuracy.
Manual Handling: Able to safely lift and move items weighing up to 25kg and, when required, come off the forklift to assist with loading, unloading and general warehouse duties
What We Are Looking For
Forklift Licence: A valid Bendi/Flexi forklift licence is essential, with proven experience operating a Bendi forklift safely and efficiently in a warehouse or manufacturing environment.
Impeccable Attention to Detail: You must be able to spot the minor differences between highly similar product codes to prevent errors.
Reliability & Punctuality: As a small team, short-notice absences impact us heavily. We need someone dependable who takes pride in excellent attendance.
Strong Communication Skills: A good level of written, spoken, and reading English is essential for reading codes, labels, and safety instructions.
Great Attitude: A fast learner with a genuine desire to do well and support the wider team.
What We Offer in Return
We believe in rewarding loyalty and hard work. For the ideal candidate, we offer:
Financial Rewards: Monthly and annual performance bonuses (applicable once your probationary period is successfully passed).
Extended Christmas Break: Extra time off over the festive period to relax with family, without it impacting your standard annual leave allowance.
Job Security: A stable, permanent role within a growing business.
A Supportive Environment: We are a small team that treats each other like family, offering help, guidance, and occasional opportunities for internal growth and development
