This role involves managing deliveries, supporting our workshop, and assisting with day-to-day operations. You’ll play a crucial role in the smooth running of our operations, from organizing deliveries and quality checking products to maintaining vehicles and ensuring the cleanliness and safety of our workshop.

If you are someone with a can-do attitude, high attention to detail, and the ability to work independently with minimal supervision, this is a role where you can make a significant impact. We’re looking for someone who’s not only here for a job, but for a long-term career with a team that cares about you as much as you care about us.

Key Responsibilities:

• Loading and unloading coils of metal.

What We Require:

• High standards – We take pride in everything we do and expect the same from you. We want someone committed to delivering excellent results and upholding the Arkus values.
• Hard work and dedication – This is a hands-on role, and we need someone ready to go the extra mile and actively contribute to our team.
• Commitment to the role – We’re looking for someone who is invested in our success as much as their own, and who is dedicated, reliable, and passionate about their work.
• A can-do attitude – You’ll need to use your initiative, apply common sense, and work independently with minimal supervision, taking ownership of your tasks.
• Team player – We value someone who actively supports teammates, collaborates effectively, and steps in to help when needed to ensure the team’s success.
• Attention to detail – From quality checking deliveries to maintaining vehicles and the yard, we value precision and consistency.
• A valid driver’s license is essential.
• A valid forklift license is required, or you must be willing to obtain one at your own expense. ARKUS will reimburse the cost after 12 months of employment.
• Previous experience in logistics, trades support, or a similar role is preferred.
• Physical ability to handle tasks like loading/unloading materials and working outdoors.
• Commitment to safety – We need someone who ensures a clean, organized, and safe work environment at all times.

What We Offer:
