Job description

Reed is supporting a well-established Bristol-based manufacturing business with the recruitment of a Warehouse / Customer Fitting & Repairs Operative to join their growing team.

This is not a standard warehouse role. While some weeks will be spent entirely within the warehouse, you'll also be part of a customer fitting and repairs rota covering sites across the UK and occasionally Europe. The additional earnings generated through this work mean current team members have achieved annual earnings of approximately £45,500 to £50,000 per year.

The role is split between warehouse duties and attending customer sites to fit, replace and repair specialist textile products on commercial machinery.

No engineering qualifications are required. Full training will be provided. We're looking for practical individuals who are comfortable using basic hand tools and enjoy varied work.

Working Hours & Travel Expectations

Warehouse-Based Weeks

  • Monday to Thursday: 8:00am - 4:00pm
  • Friday: 7:00am - 3:00pm
  • 20-minute paid lunch break
  • Option to take a longer lunch break and finish 30 minutes later if preferred

Customer Fitting & Repairs Work

As part of the customer fitting and repairs rota, you'll regularly travel to customer sites across the UK with a colleague.

  • Typically attend around 10 customer visits per month.
  • Some visits take place during your normal working week instead of warehouse duties.
  • Early starts are part of the role, with jobs requiring a 4:30am meet-up.
  • Local jobs can sometimes be completed by late morning resulting in the rest of the day off, while others may involve longer-distance travel.
  • Overnight stays and flights may occasionally be required.
  • International travel is available, typically 3-4 trips per year.

Please note: Some customers cannot shut down machinery during the working week, meaning some weekend work is required. In most cases this would be one day of the weekend rather than both days, meaning there may be occasional weeks where you work a 6-day week.

Key Responsibilities

  • Picking and packing customer orders.
  • Materials handling and stock control.
  • Warehouse duties.
  • Assisting with dispatch and operational activities.
  • Travelling to customer sites as part of a two-person team.
  • Fitting, replacing and repairing specialist textile products.
  • Using hand tools and following installation procedures.
  • Representing the business professionally whilst on customer sites.
  • Supporting customers during installations and repairs.

About You

We're particularly interested in speaking with candidates who have experience within:

  • Warehousing and distribution.
  • Manufacturing or production.
  • Labouring and construction.
  • Automotive or garage environments.
  • Installation and fitting roles.
  • Maintenance positions.
  • Mechanical or hands-on practical work.
  • Strong DIY backgrounds.

You'll also have:

  • Previous warehouse experience.
  • A practical, hands-on approach.
  • Confidence using basic hand tools.
  • Flexibility to travel and stay away when required.
  • Comfort with early starts and occasional weekend work.
  • A full UK driving licence with no more than 6 points.
  • Confidence driving a Transit van.
  • A valid UK passport.

What's on Offer

  • £12.89 per hour basic salary.
  • Significant additional earning potential through site work and travel.
  • Realistic earnings of £45,000 - £50,000+.
  • Company pension.
  • Free onsite parking.
  • Full training provided.
  • UK and occasional international travel.
