Buckinghamshire
£35,000 - £40,000 + Benefits
Are you a hands-on team leader or supervisor with a knack for logistics and looking for progression into a senior management role? We're working with a fast-paced, growing events supply business looking for a driven and proactive Assistant Warehouse Manager to join their team in Buckinghamshire.
You'll be stepping into a role that's part leadership, part sleeves-rolled-up delivery - perfect for someone who thrives on variety and responsibility and is ready for that next step.
The Opportunity

* Helping to lead, training and motivating a warehouse and distribution team. * Planning and optimising logistics and delivery schedules. * Overseeing inventory levels and ensuring high warehouse standards. * Getting hands-on with event kit: from picking to loading to client delivery. * Acting as an on-site representative with clients and ensuring service excellence. * Ensuring compliance with health & safety protocols. * Monitoring performance metrics and suggesting improvements. * Liaising with office-based teams to keep everything running smoothly.
What You'll Need
* Experience in warehouse, distribution or event operations. * Supervisory or Team Leader experience with a practical, can-do attitude. * A full UK Driving Licence (essential). * Strong organisation and communication skills. * The ability to prioritise, multitask, and problem-solve under pressure. * Flexibility around working hours, including occasional weekends.
Bonus Points For
* Forklift licence or HGV licence. * Knowledge of warehouse systems or scheduling software.
What's in it for You
* Competitive salary (£35k-£40k depending on experience). * 21 days holiday + bank holidays. * Uniform and on-site parking. * Staff discounts and regular company events. * A chance to grow with a thriving business.
