We need you like customers need frozen peas.
The warehousing side of retail is never going to go away, especially when it comes to food for the freezer. As the Warehouse operates at -20 degrees, we look after everyone in our frozen food centres really well. For a start, there are 70 minutes of warming breaks each shift, so 10 minutes in every hour you can warm up, have a warm drink in the subsidised canteen and feel ready for the next bout. And if you need more time to heat up every now and again, you’ll get it. We know it’s tough and we’re not monsters. What’s more you will be working in Pineham, one of our new facilities that’s been properly designed, where the PPE is above and beyond.

You play a vital role for our customers as we pick and assemble our products, preparing them to be dispatched to our stores in an efficient and safe way. We’ll give you full training in moving and picking stock, all you need to do is follow directions and get those right. We will make sure you have all the tools and equipment you need to move products around the warehouse with our friendly team always there to help you if you need it.
With our customers always front and centre, you take pride in your work, always determining the best way to assemble products so they are store ready whilst taking care of any damaged stock you see and making sure we are always working within our safety procedures.
