Warehouse Assistant

A Warehouse Assistant carries out a range of duties in a warehouse or storage facility. You might receive stock as it arrives and distribute it to a relevant location. Warehouse Assistants also keep track of current stock and process orders. You may assist with packaging orders and getting them ready for transport.

Warehouse Assistants should be organised and able to handle several tasks at one time. You’ll need to be able to work as part of a team and communicate well with colleagues. Warehouse Assistants should be comfortable with computerised stock systems and be able to handle various administrative tasks.
