We’re looking for a warehouse support assistant to join our team in the Biggleswade depot. 

Working in a close-knit team, you’ll get involved with all the administrative tasks within this busy and service driven warehouse environment. We’ll look for you to get involved in all areas of the warehouse and no two days will look the same. If you can bring the administrative skills and attention to detail we’re looking for, we can offer you a great opportunity with a business that puts people at the heart of its strategy.

What you’ll do:

• action colleague holiday requests on system
• audit internal systems
• review and initiate deployment of colleagues
• maintain absence management database
• update labour management details
• input overtime into operational plans
• send daily and weekly reports as required
• update gate log for inbound suppliers
• liaise with cross functional departments
  

This role would suit someone who has:

• strong administration skills and experience 
• great organisation skills
• the ability to work towards deadlines
• great knowledge and experience of using Microsoft Office (Word, Excel etc)
• ideally have experience working in a busy and service driven warehouse environment, but this isn’t essential
  

At Co-op you’ll do work that matters, and you’ll be rewarded for your hard work with a competitive salary (including additional shift allowances) and a benefits package which includes holidays starting from 30 days per year (including bank holidays), 30% off Co-op branded products in our food stores, a pension with up to 10% employer contributions, plus:

• Wagestream – a money management app that gives you access to a percentage of your pay as you earn it
• Free employee assistance programme with extensive health, financial and wellbeing support
• Access to credit unions for loans and savings, plus rental deposit loans and season ticket loans
• Free eye tests every 2 years
• On-site facilities including a subsidised canteen and free parking
  

At Co-op, we’re proud to do things a different way. As one of the world’s largest co-operatives, owned by millions of members, community is at the heart of what we do. Since our Co-op was founded in 1844, we’ve had a clear social purpose, and everything we do as a business helps to build a fairer world for our members, customers, colleagues, and communities.
