Be Part of Something Bigger at Huws Gray.
Whether you're in the trade or simply love a good home improvement project, chances are you've heard of us. We’re the Huws Gray Group – home to a family of trusted brands including Huws Gray, Hirebase, Civils & Lintels, The Timber Group, PDM, NDI, and Anglia Tool Centre. Across the UK, our branches support local communities with everything they need for building, improving, and creating – we couldn’t do it without our people and that’s where you come in!
We’re now looking for a Yard Supervisor to join the team at our Derby - Alfreton Road branch. You’ll play a key role in keeping our yard running smoothly. You’ll lead a team, ensuring stock is maintained and deliveries go out efficiently—all while creating a safe and well-organised environment.
What you’ll be doing:
Overseeing yard operations - working closely with our Yard Operatives and Drivers
Managing stock levels - identifying any faulty or damaged goods, and reporting issues to the Branch Manager
Supporting deliveries - handling loading and unloading to keep things moving
Handling goods in and out - ensuring all documentation is completed accurately on our systems
Working as part of a team - keeping our branch running efficiently and delivering excellent customer service
We’re happy to explore flexible working options. Feel free to chat with us about it during the interview. While we might not be able to meet every request, we’ll always listen with an open mind—and there’s no judgment in asking.
What you’ll bring:
We know that great talent comes from all walks of life, and we value individuality. If you have a Forklift Driving Licence and experience in a fast-paced environment, that’s a great advantage—but we’ll also provide plenty of training and support to help you succeed.
What’s in it for you:
We believe great work should be recognised and rewarded. Here’s what you can expect:
23 days’ holiday, plus bank holidays (31 days per year)
Company bonus scheme, based on performance
Contributory pension and life assurance
Discounts on high street retailers, supermarkets, restaurants, gyms and cinemas
Colleague discount across our group brands
Attraction and travel discounts
Training and development programmes to support your growth
We offer on-the-job training and opportunities to work towards recognised qualifications, including apprenticeships.
At Huws Gray, we believe that a diverse and inclusive workforce makes us stronger, smarter and better at serving our customers.
We’re proud to be an equal opportunities employer and we are committed to creating a respectful and inclusive workplace, whether you’re based in one of our branches, on the road or in one of our offices.
If you need any adjustments to support you through the application or interview process, please let us know.
