Warehouse Shift Manager - Warrington

Warehouse Shift Manager jobs

Keeping the warehouse running effectively is essential for any business, as it ensures that products are delivered in a timely manner, stocks are maintained at the right levels and records are kept up to date.

The role of a Warehouse Shift Manager will vary, depending on the company in question and the nature of the business. However, whether the organisation operates in the manufacturing, construction, retail, medical or defence sector - or another field - the person in this role will be responsible for leading a team and ensuring all activities run smoothly and efficiently.

In most cases, this will involve scheduling teams, managing operational activities and ensuring all working practices follow guidelines established by the company, health and safety and government legislation.

The skills required

Anyone considering a role as a Warehouse Shift Manager should have a knack for communication, as you’ll need to provide instructions to your team and report to directors, customers and colleagues on a regular basis. Good organisation skills are a must and you should be keenly aware of details.

In addition, an analytical mind and ability to make carefully considered decisions quickly will help you stand out from the competition.

Computer literacy is also a must - particularly knowledge of WMS systems, spreadsheets and databases, as well as the Microsoft Office suite.

Finally, since the role requires working on a shift rota, candidates will need to have flexible schedules and be comfortable with working at any time of the day.

Warehouse Shift Manager Jobs in Warrington

Halfway between Liverpool and Manchester lies Warrington, a large town with an industrial and commercial pedigree to match some of the UK’s smaller cities. It followed the traditional Northern path of booming during the Industrial Revolution, specialising in steel, textiles and chemical industries, as well as some brewing for good measure, much of which remains to this day.

The town is extremely well connected, with three major motorways, the M62, the M6 and the M56 passing its north, east and south respectively and A roads radiating out in all directions, typical of the market town it once was. The River Mersey passes through it, as do the Manchester Ship Canal and Bridgewater Canal and two major railway lines. With its population of over 200,000 people and a shopping area to rival any city, it’s a bustling and attractive town to live in.

Around the town’s edges are hundreds of large and small businesses, including a large Unilever detergent factory in the east. There are lots of warehouses and logistics companies in the area, too, that take advantage of its excellent communications and skilled workforce. There are few places like Warrington when it comes to finding a Warehouse Shift Manager work, and there’s always a demand for such positions.
