My Stafford based client are looking for support in pre-despatch, with order progress chasing, pre-despatch inspection and packing of orders to fulfil a surge in order volumes.

Working hours 08:00 to 17:00 Monday to Thursday

08:00 to 15:45 Friday.

The successful operatives should be in place until December, Covid and orders permitting, and there is a possibility that they will go permanent in early 2021 if volumes are sustained.

The successful Pre-Despatch Operative will carry out the following duties:
  • Pick, pack and despatch machines as appropriate on a daily basis
  • Review and chase machines still in production for despatch
  • Receive and process machine returns
  • Replenish stock levels from bulk storage to maintain agreed stock levels
  • Empty Compactors as required
  • Maintain yard including item locations and emptying skips
  • General Housekeeping

The successful Pre-Despatch Operative will have the following skills and experience:

  • Focused with a high level of accuracy and attention to detail.
  • Flexibility re shift end times, as order volumes often take you beyond your official finish time - overtime will be paid for these extra hours though.
  • A good working knowledge of IT software packages including Microsoft Outlook and Excel.
  • SAP knowledge would be useful.
  • Strong organisational skills.
  • Able to work on own initiative and have a track record of working to deadlines.
  • Enjoy working as part of a team.

Desirable Criteria


  • Previous stock management experience.
  • Knowledge of warehouse operations.
  • Experience of using SAP on a daily basis.
