We are currently recruiting on behalf of a well-established and busy organisation within the distribution sector. This is an excellent opportunity for a motivated and hands-on individual to step into a Yard Team Leader position on a temporary to permanent basis.

The Role
As Team Leader, you will play a key role in the day-to-day running of the yard, ensuring operations are efficient, organised, and aligned with business needs.

Carrying out basic maintenance on machinery (e.g. forklifts, loading shovels, pre-packing equipment)

Preparing product for upcoming deliveries (bagging, wrapping, etc.)

Loading and unloading vehicles safely and efficiently

Maintaining regular communication with the office regarding stock deliveries, workload planning, and operational updates

Loading Shovel Licence (desirable but not essential)

Strong organisational and communication skills

Ability to work under pressure in a demanding environment

A proactive, “hands-on” approach with a willingness to lead by example

Team Leader experience is beneficial but not essential — the right attitude and leadership potential are key

Working Hours

Standard hours: 06:00 – 16:00 (may vary depending on business needs)

Saturday working required on a rota basis during winter (peak season)

Flexibility is essential, particularly during busy periods

Due to peak demand, holiday is typically restricted during winter months

What’s on Offer

Temp-to-perm opportunity with long-term prospects

Supportive working environment

Opportunity to step into a leadership role and develop your career

If you are a reliable, driven individual looking to take the next step in your career within a dynamic environment, we would love to hear from you
