Our world class portfolio of brands – including Dulux, International, Sikkens and Interpon – is trusted by customers around the globe. We’re active in more than 150 countries and have set our sights on becoming the global industry leader.

Warehouse Operative – Inbound Goods

Having worked in a warehouse environment and gained a FLT licence you are ready for a new move to a business that is going places. That business is AkzoNobel. Home to world class products, we have been awarded Top Employer status and are recognised globally for being first with ideas, driving innovation and producing innovative products. This allows us to build successful partnerships with customers and our Birmingham site is a key supplier of coatings for food, beer & beverage and aerosol cans. You can now join the team as we are looking for a warehouse professional to support our logistics function on site.

As a Warehouse Operative you will take responsibility for offloading of goods and materials in compliance with standard operating procedures. This will include checking documentation for accuracy and certificate of analysis as well as the material’s condition prior to acceptance. You will help manufacturing colleagues by ensuring materials are accurately picked, organised and labelled ready for the daily collections. You will return materials no longer required by production to stores too. Important will be the ability to safely handle and store high hazard chemicals. You will also manage data logging on our ERP (SAP) system and help create a positive, high performance, customer focused work culture.

You must have experience of working in a busy warehousing environment (Chemical preferred)
