Warehouse Operative Kendal, England
Job description
- What will your job look like?
Working in a multi-channel warehouse means there's always lots to do. One day you could be removing items from containers, the next you could be driving one of our various fork lift trucks to receive pallets of stock into our warehouse or pick stock for one of our many stores. And as we get busier towards the end of the year, you'll even be picking and packing our customers' orders directly to make sure they get their gifts in time for Christmas!
Be outstanding in your service here and there's plenty of room to progress - but you'll be off to a great start. And with a whole warehouse of activity going on, there's lots of new processes to learn to help you succeed
What's in it for you?
Being part of a huge and happy working family, our colleagues are rewarded with a competitive salary, 29 days paid holiday (including bank holidays) and a group personal pension plan. We also offer all of our colleagues:
- Forklift Truck training to an industry standard (subject to a satisfactory medical)
- Full Uniform including safety boots
- Free onsite parking
- Canteen areas with vending machines and a pool table
- Free tea, coffee and juice
- Occasional free treats such as bacon buns, cakes and ice-cream
- Generous discounts on our products
A little about us:
Founded in the early 60s, we're still a family-owned business with the same strong values of quality and customer care now as when we first started. From selling plastic bags for home freezing from the Rayner family garage in Windermere, to over 4000 kitchen and home products today, Lakeland has grown to the extent that we now send out thousands of parcels a day from our Kendal despatch centre, and we have stores nationwide, stretching from Aberdeen to Exeter, with more in the pipeline.

What are we looking for?
We're looking for enthusiastic and hard-working people to join the Lakeland family and help inspire magic in the home!
