Are you an experienced Warehouse Operative looking for a stable, permanent opportunity with a well-established business and a genuinely supportive team culture?
Our client has been successfully operating for over 30 years and is now looking for a proactive and reliable Warehouse Operative to become an integral part of their team in Flitwick.
This is a varied, hands-on position, so we're looking for somebody who enjoys getting involved in all areas of warehouse operations. The successful applicant won't only be working on a forklift all day – they'll be working alongside their colleagues to make sure everything runs smoothly.

Your day-to-day responsibilities will include:
Operating a counterbalance forklift truck
Loading and unloading lorries
Picking and packing orders accurately
Scanning and processing items
Moving stock around the warehouse
Manual handling and heavy lifting
Supporting with general warehouse duties
Working flexibly across the operation depending on the priorities of the day
Helping your colleagues and contributing to the wider success of the warehouse team
We’re looking for someone who is:
Proactive and willing to get stuck in
Reliable and committed
Flexible in their approach to work
Comfortable with manual handling and heavy lifting
Happy carrying out a variety of warehouse duties rather than spending the entire day operating a truck
A genuine team player who enjoys helping others
Looking for a long-term, permanent opportunity
Working hours
You'll normally work 8:30am–5:00pm Monday to Thursday, with an earlier finish of 2:45pm on Fridays.
During the company's busier spring and summer months, there may be occasions when you're required to start earlier. However, these additional hours will be banked and can be taken back as additional leave later in the year, giving you some extra time off during quieter periods.
Should you be shortlisted for this position, a member of the SMT Recruitment team will be in touch with you within the next 7 days. We may also contact you regarding other suitable vacancies. If you do not hear back from us, please assume your application has been unsuccessful on this occasion. On behalf of everyone at SMT Recruitment, we wish you the best of luck with your application and every success in securing your next role
