We’re partnering with a long-standing client to appoint a hands-on Warehouse Manager to take full ownership of two Hinckley sites.

* General facility management, maintenance coordination and keeping equipment in good working order
 
* WMS accuracy, reporting and data integrity
 
* Acting as part of their senior leadership cohort and supporting the evolution of the business
What you'll need:
We’re looking for someone who stays calm under pressure, solves problems without fuss, and knows how to balance tactical execution with operational leadership. Ideally you’ll bring:
 
* Proven experience as a Warehouse Manager
 
* A pragmatic, solutions-first mindset
 
* Confidence leading, coaching and developing people
 
* Import/export knowledge (bonded warehouse experience an advantage)
 
* Process focus with strong attention to accuracy and quality
