- Reconciling stock levels within the warehouse operation (based on-site at the prison)
- Managing the delivery of accurate and timely dispatch of orders to the inmates
- Ensuring operational targets are met and exceeded

We'd love to hear from you if you have the following experience:
- Current three years of UK address history (mandatory for enhanced security clearance)
- The ability to work in a prison environment, alongside inmates
- A good understanding of warehouse processes, desirable
- Good communication skills across all levels
WHY CHOOSE US?

- Free confidential 24/7 GP service
