Despatch Operator - Lockerbie

How you will make an impact

• Move finished dairy products safely from production into refrigerated storage areas.
• Complete order picking, stock counts and inventory activities within the cold store operation.
• Load and unload vehicles using pallet trucks and approved handling equipment.
• Maintain excellent standards of food safety, hygiene, GMP and housekeeping.
• Support the efficient dispatch of products to customers while contributing to a safe working environment.

What will make you successful

We're looking for motivated individuals who enjoy working as part of a team and can also work independently. You'll be comfortable within a physically active role where you'll spend much of your shift on your feet. Previous experience within warehousing, logistics, manufacturing, cold stores, FMCG or distribution environments would be beneficial but is not essential.

Successful candidates will demonstrate a strong work ethic, reliability, good attendance, a focus on safety, and the ability to work a rotating 4-on-4-off shift pattern covering both days and nights. Knowledge of food manufacturing, health and safety or warehouse operations would be advantageous, although full training will be provided.

What do we offer?

This is an opportunity to join one of the UK's leading dairy manufacturers at our Lockerbie site. We offer a competitive package of approximately £37,000 including shift allowance, matched pension contributions of up to 6%, comprehensive training and development, and the potential for long-term career opportunities.

Our Lockerbie site produces both milk and cheese and processes some of the highest-quality milk in the UK. Over 60% of our colleagues have more than 10 years of service, reflecting the supportive culture and stability available within the business.
