Summary
We are looking for a Yard Operative to join us at Huws Gray Nottingham!
If you’re in the trade or have ever tackled a home improvement project, you’ve probably heard of us. We’re the Huws Gray Group and we’re made up of a number of brands, including Huws Gray, Hirebase, Civils & Lintels, The Timber Group, PDM, NDI and Anglia Tool Centre to name a few. Up and down the UK, our branches are serving and supporting our local communities with all their building material needs, but we couldn’t do this without the right people, so why not join us?
We rely on our Yard Operatives to provide excellent service to our customers, through knowledge of our stock and making sure products are ready for deliveries and collections. Working in one of our branches you’ll be part of a team where everyone is putting the effort in to offer brilliant customer service and to get the job done.
Here’s a quick overview of some of the things you can expect to do as a Yard Operative with Huws Gray:
Serving our customers out in the yard, providing a good knowledge of the best products for their projects
Supporting with incoming deliveries, making sure stock in the yard is put away correctly and kept tidy in line with Health & Safety guidelines
Working as a team to help our drivers by loading and unloading vehicles
Safeguarding against loss and theft of stock by being security conscious
We know that you are more than just a CV and embracing everyone’s individuality is what makes us great as a team. We can give you plenty of training and equip you with the tools that you’ll need to succeed as a Yard Operative. Although not essential, a forklift licence would be an advantage for this role.
We know you’re thinking ‘this sounds great, but what’s in it for me?’ Let us tell you:
23 days annual leave, plus bank holidays
Company performance bonus scheme
A contributory pension scheme
Company funded Life Assurance
A generous colleague discount scheme
A range of training and development programmes to help you progress your career
Our online application process takes less time to complete than it does to make a good brew, so stick the kettle on and make your application!
