We’re currently working on behalf of our client, a well-established and growing SME based in Edenbridge, to recruit a hands-on Warehouse Supervisor to take ownership of day-to-day warehouse operations and lead a busy, fast-paced team.

This is a highly practical, “lead from the front” role — ideal for someone who thrives in a working environment where they are just as involved on the warehouse floor as they are in supervising the team.

Our client is looking for a reliable, organised and proactive individual who can maintain high standards of accuracy, safety, and efficiency, while motivating others to do the same.

Maintaining accurate stock records and ensuring systems are kept fully up to date
Overseeing the full order cycle from picking through to packing and dispatch
Ensuring inbound and outbound shipments are processed correctly with accurate paperwork
Carrying out basic checks on equipment and escalating any repair needs
Supporting in assembly/build tasks when operationally required
Keeping the warehouse clean, organised, and operating at a high standard
Supporting onboarding and day-to-day guidance of new starters and apprentices
