Assistant Warehouse Manager
Buckinghamshire
£35,000 - £40,000 + Benefits
Are you a hands-on team leader or supervisor with a knack for logistics and looking for progression into a senior management role? We're working with a fast-paced, growing events supply business looking for a driven and proactive Assistant Warehouse Manager to join their team in Buckinghamshire.
You'll be stepping into a role that's part leadership, part sleeves-rolled-up delivery - perfect for someone who thrives on variety and responsibility and is ready for that next step.
The Opportunity
This isn't a clipboard-and-desk type of job. You'll be leading from the front: helping to oversee warehouse operations, managing stock and logistics, and getting stuck in with the team on deliveries, installations, and client setups. You'll also play a key role in shaping the operation as the business continues to grow.
Key Responsibilities
* Helping to lead, training and motivating a warehouse and distribution team.
* Planning and optimising logistics and delivery schedules.
* Overseeing inventory levels and ensuring high warehouse standards.
* Getting hands-on with event kit: from picking to loading to client delivery.
* Acting as an on-site representative with clients and ensuring service excellence.
* Ensuring compliance with health & safety protocols.
* Monitoring performance metrics and suggesting improvements.
* Liaising with office-based teams to keep everything running smoothly.
What You'll Need
* Experience in warehouse, distribution or event operations.
* Supervisory or Team Leader experience with a practical, can-do attitude.
* A full UK Driving Licence (essential).
* Strong organisation and communication skills.
* The ability to prioritise, multitask, and problem-solve under pressure.
* Flexibility around working hours, including occasional weekends.
Bonus Points For
* Forklift licence or HGV licence.
* Knowledge of warehouse systems or scheduling software.
What's in it for You
* Competitive salary (£35k-£40k depending on experience).
* 21 days holiday + bank holidays.
* Uniform and on-site parking.
* Staff discounts and regular company events.
* A chance to grow with a thriving business.
