Warehouse Operative - Andover

Pick a career packed with opportunities. Join Ocado Logistics today!

As a Warehouse Operative with Ocado Logistics, you’ll play a key role in keeping our operation moving and ensuring customers receive their orders on time. Based at our state-of-the-art fulfilment centre in Andover, you’ll join a team that works together to deliver a great customer experience every day.

We’re currently recruiting primarily into our Inbound and Despatch teams. These are active, physically demanding roles where you’ll be on your feet for most of your shift, regularly lifting, moving and handling products and totes.

The pace can be busy, but if you enjoy practical work, staying active and seeing what you’ve achieved at the end of a shift, it could be a great fit. You’ll certainly get your steps in, so you may not need that gym membership after all!

With a variety of shift options available, our core roster gives you your working pattern 6 to 13 weeks in advance, making it easier to plan life around work.

You’ll be required to work across both Ambient and Chilled areas, where temperatures can be as low as -5°C. Full training and support will be provided.
