Warehouse Support & Driver
Full-time | £27,000 per annum | In person | SL4 6QY
Biltong Boss is a fast-growing premium meat-snacking business. We are looking for a dependable, hands-on and highly organised Warehouse Support & Driver to become a genuine long-term part of the business.
This is not a role for someone looking to do the bare minimum. We need someone who takes ownership, follows processes properly, spots problems before they become bigger issues and approaches each day with a practical, solution-focused attitude.
You will be trusted with stock, orders, driving, deliveries, market preparation and the day-to-day standards that keep the business running. Accuracy, reliability, flexibility and consistency are non-negotiable.
The Role
You will support the day-to-day warehouse, driving and operational functions of the business, with particular responsibility for:
- Packing stock for customer orders, markets, storage and events
- Preparing, maintaining and organising market kit boxes and till boxes
- Ensuring correct stock rotation and product handling procedures are followed
- Assisting with goods received, labelling, put-away and general warehouse organisation
- Supporting stock counts, reconciliations and investigations into discrepancies
- Maintaining accurate order, stock and fulfilment records
- Preparing order paperwork and coordinating dispatches with delivery partners
- Processing orders across our Website, Amazon, Fresho and other sales channels
- Driving company vehicles for deliveries, collections and operational requirements
- Delivering stock and equipment to key markets
- Collecting stock, equipment and materials from key markets
- Setting up market stalls where required
- Supporting market and event preparation from the warehouse
- Providing driver cover when our regular weekend driver is unavailable, usually around once per month
- Preparing task sheets, checklists and operational documents
- Completing weekly van checks for cleanliness, equipment and basic readiness
- Monitoring consumables, packaging and operational supplies
- Maintaining clean, safe and organised office, warehouse, stockroom, van and storage areas
- Supporting delivery collections, drop-offs and other reasonable operational tasks as required
No job is too big or too small in this role. Some days will involve focused warehouse and admin work; others will involve early-morning driving, market set-up, packing boxes, checking stock, cleaning equipment or solving an unexpected operational issue.

- Reliable, committed and genuinely wants to grow with a business
