Warehouse Team Leader - Days
CoventryWarehouse Team Leaders Days 6am-6pm | 4 On 4 Off Coventry Multiple Vacancies Available Inbound | Outbound | Fulfilment | Logistics Not every Team Leader role is actually leadership. Some are basically just firefighting with a radio and a headache. This one is different. We’re looking for proper hands-on operational leaders who can keep teams motivated, operations moving and standards high within a fast-paced warehouse environment.

Shift Warehouse Supervisor
CoventryWarehouse Supervisors Inbound | Outbound | B2B | B2C Operations Multiple Vacancies Available Days (6am-6pm) 4 on 4 off Shift Pattern OR Nights (6pm-6am) 4 on 4 off £34k pa Coventry Let’s cut through the usual warehouse job advert clichés. This is not a role for someone who wants to stand around with a clipboard pretending to supervise people. This business needs proper hands-on leaders. People who can keep an operation moving when things get busy. People who can lead teams properly without shouting across a warehouse floor. People who understand that good operations are built on organisation, accountability, communication and consistency. We are currently recruiting for multiple Warehouse Supervisor opportunities across inbound, outbound, B2B and B2C operations within a large-scale, fast-paced logistics environment. So whether your background is goods in, dispatch, e-commerce, palletised distribution, retail fulfilment or operational support — we want to hear from you. The Role You’ll be responsible for overseeing the day-to-day warehouse operation, ensuring orders are picked, packed and dispatched accurately and on time whilst maintaining operational standards, KPI performance and Health & Safety compliance. You’ll act as the link between the operation and the team on the floor — keeping standards high, solving problems quickly and making sure the shift runs properly. This is very much a visible, operational leadership role. What You’ll Be Doing • Supervising daily warehouse operations across inbound, outbound, B2B or B2C functions • Managing workloads and allocating resources effectively • Driving KPI performance and operational accuracy • Monitoring workflow and maintaining FIFO processes • Supporting and developing warehouse operatives • Managing attendance, holidays and shift coverage • Conducting team briefings and maintaining communication across the operation • Supporting disciplinary, absence and performance management processes • Carrying out site inductions and SOP sign-offs • Ensuring Health & Safety standards are maintained at all times • Supporting process improvements and operational efficiencies • Producing operational and KPI reports for management • Working closely with customers and internal stakeholders to resolve issues quickly What You’ll Need • Previous warehouse or logistics supervisory experience • Experience within inbound, outbound, B2B, B2C or distribution operations • Experience leading teams within fast-paced warehouse environments • Good understanding of warehouse processes and KPI management • Strong organisational and communication skills • Confidence managing people and operational priorities simultaneously • Good Health & Safety awareness • Experience using warehouse systems and Microsoft Office • Ability to stay calm under pressure and make decisions quickly • A proactive and hands-on approach to leadership What They’re Looking For Someone who leads from the front.

Supervisors who can build respect with the team whilst still holding people accountable. People who genuinely care about standards, performance and creating a positive working environment. What You Might Not Like Warehouse operations are unpredictable sometimes. Priorities change. Volumes increase. People call in sick. Problems happen. If you need every day to go exactly to plan, this probably won’t be the role for you. But if you enjoy the pace, enjoy problem-solving and enjoy making operations run better, you’ll probably love it. 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.

Continuous Improvement Site Manager
CoventrySite Continuous Improvement Manager Logistics | Operations | Lean | Change Management £41K pa Some businesses talk about “continuous improvement”. This role is for someone who actually delivers it. Not by sitting in a meeting room making pretty PowerPoints about efficiency… But by getting into the operation, understanding the problems properly and implementing changes that genuinely improve performance. This is a role for someone who naturally spots waste, inefficiencies, bottlenecks and broken processes before everyone else does. Someone who enjoys fixing things. Improving things. Challenging things. And importantly — bringing people with them whilst doing it. If you thrive in fast-paced logistics or operational environments and enjoy making measurable improvements that actually matter, keep reading. The Role You’ll take ownership of Continuous Improvement activity across a busy operational environment, driving projects that improve efficiency, productivity, quality and operational performance. You’ll work closely with operational leaders, site teams and wider business stakeholders to identify opportunities for improvement and implement practical, sustainable solutions. This is not a “sit behind a laptop and report on problems” role. They need someone hands-on, visible and operationally credible. What You’ll Be Doing • Leading Continuous Improvement initiatives across the site • Identifying operational inefficiencies and improvement opportunities • Analysing operational and performance data to support decision making • Driving Lean and process improvement projects • Supporting operational teams through change initiatives • Implementing and improving SOPs and operational processes • Facilitating workshops, coaching and CI training sessions • Monitoring project outcomes and reporting improvements to senior leadership • Supporting cost reduction and productivity improvement initiatives • Working cross-functionally with operations and support teams • Promoting a culture of accountability, engagement and continuous improvement • Supporting standardisation and operational best practice across the business What You’ll Need • Experience within logistics, warehousing, supply chain or manufacturing • Strong Continuous Improvement or operational excellence experience • Exposure to Lean, Six Sigma or similar CI methodologies • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills • Experience managing projects and driving operational change • Ability to influence stakeholders at all levels • Confidence analysing data and presenting findings clearly • Strong communication and relationship-building skills • A practical, hands-on and solutions-focused approach What They’re Looking For Someone who can challenge processes without creating resistance. Someone commercially aware enough to understand operational impact. Someone credible enough that teams actually listen when they speak. Someone who can balance people, process and performance without overcomplicating everything. The kind of person who walks into an operation and immediately starts mentally reorganising it. What You Might Not Like If you like being told exactly what to do every day… This probably isn’t for you. There will be ambiguity. You’ll need resilience. You’ll need influence. And sometimes you’ll need to push through resistance to make improvements happen. But if you enjoy creating positive operational change and genuinely making an impact, this role offers a lot of scope. What To Do Next If you’ve got strong operational improvement experience within logistics, warehousing, manufacturing or supply chain environments and want a role where your ideas and experience will actually be valued, apply today. Or if you prefer a confidential conversation first, that’s absolutely fine too. -

There will be pressure. There will be moving parts. There will be difficult conversations. There will be expectations. But for the right person, there is genuine opportunity to make an impact, influence change and build something properly.

Peterborough The Role Fluent Dutch & English Lead Qualifier (Part-Time, Remote) 15 hours a week - £20.00 per hour This is not a hard sales role. No pushing, no awkward scripts, no “sell at all costs” nonsense. This is about having proper conversations. You’ll be speaking to businesses across the Dutch market, following up on inbound leads and qualifying whether there’s a genuine opportunity there. Think of it as the bridge between interest and action. If you’re someone who can read between the lines, ask the right questions, and actually listen - you’ll do well here. What You’ll Be Doing Calling inbound and warm leads (no cold spray-and-pray calling) Speaking with decision-makers in Dutch and English Asking smart, structured questions to qualify interest and need Building quick rapport and leaving a strong first impression Logging outcomes clearly (if it’s not written down, it didn’t happen) Passing qualified opportunities to the wider team What You’ll Need Fluent Dutch and English (non-negotiable) Confidence on the phone - not scripted, just natural Ability to think on your feet and hold a conversation Some experience in sales, lead generation, customer service or similar Self-discipline - it’s remote, no one’s watching over your shoulder A bit of curiosity - the best people always ask one more question What You Might Not Like It’s repetitive at times - calls, notes, repeat You’ll hear “not interested” more than “yes” (that’s the job) No hiding behind emails - this is phone-first If you need constant direction, this will feel uncomfortable What To Do Next If you’re fluent in Dutch, comfortable on the phone, and like the idea of a flexible, remote role where you can just get your head down and deliver - apply. If you’re looking for something easy where you can coast… this isn’t it. -

You’ll be responsible for identifying, approaching and winning new retail partners across the UK, helping grow brand presence and ultimately driving revenue. There’s no legacy pipeline to lean on.
