Warehouse Team Leader

Join our friendly team at Beaver Process Equipment in Embleton as our Warehouse Team Leader.

You’ll lead from the front to keep our warehouse running smoothly, safely, and on schedule.

Your key responsibilities will include:

👥 Leading the team – running the morning toolbox, allocating daily tasks across the 5-person team, onboarding/training, clearing floor bottlenecks, and maintaining tempo.

🚜 Hands-on warehouse operations – leading by example on the floor – operating forklifts, loading/unloading, receiving, picking, packing, booking transport, and updating the system.

🖥️ ERP & inventory accuracy – prompt, error-free system transactions in our ERP (SAP Business One) for receipts, picks, deliveries, and coordinating cycle counts.

🦺 Frontline safety – daily equipment pre-start checks, safety oversight, Chain of Responsibility (CoR) loading compliance, and clean warehouse housekeeping.

📦 Consumables & maintenance – keeping packaging consumables stocked and booking routine servicing for forklifts, cranes, and waste removal.

✅ Warehouse experience: Proven background in a fast-paced, structured warehouse (e.g., FMCG, retail DC, or high-volume wholesale).

✅ Frontline leader: Prior experience as a Team Leader allocating daily tasks and keeping a small warehouse team productive (or ready to step-up to doing this).

✅ Licences: Valid Forklift ticket (LF) and C-Class Driver's Licence.

✅ Computer fluency: Confident using warehouse ERP/WMS systems (SAP Business One experience is a bonus).
