This is a hands-on operational leadership position within a fast-paced ecommerce warehouse where customer expectations are high, volumes move quickly and every delay has a knock-on effect somewhere. You’ll be leading Team Leaders and Warehouse Operatives across a busy ecommerce fulfilment operation, making sure orders leave accurately, on time and without operational chaos breaking out every five minutes. You’ll report directly into the Shift Operations Manager and play a key role in keeping the shift productive, organised and accountable.

What You Might Not Like It’s fast paced Volumes change quickly Peak gets busy Customer deadlines are non-negotiable Some days feel like controlled madness You’ll spend more time on the warehouse floor than hiding behind spreadsheets What You’ll Get £34,000 salary Genuine progression opportunities Large-scale ecommerce operational exposure Stable long-term opportunity Supportive leadership team A business where operational leadership is genuinely valued What To Do Next If you’ve got warehouse supervisory experience and want to join a business where you can genuinely make an impact rather than just being another number on shift, apply today.

Our Story

  • Despite all the challenges the industry faced in 2021, Quest successfully met the challenge and the requirements needed without impacting the operation. This was a combination of successful engagement with Amazon teams including Workforce Staffing, Ops Teams, Procurement and Marketing. Over Q3 and Q4 over 10000 candidates would be provided for Day 1 inductions across the network of 16 sites. Two outstanding success stories would be for the new sites in both Lutterworth and Derby, both sites being geographically challenging due to not actually being in large population centres.Where required a combination of transport solutions, targeted marketing campaigns and incentives were all successfully implemented to achieve success. Onsite teams were also able to provide away teams to site with the Amazon network that required support.
