Bidfood Newcastle is looking for a reliable and energetic individual to join our team as a Night Shift Storeperson at our Beresfield branch.

If you enjoy hands-on work, value consistency and variety in your day, and take pride in being part of a well-run operation, this could be the role for you. Bidfood is a national foodservice leader, and you’ll play a key role in keeping things moving behind the scenes, ensuring products are picked, packed and delivered with precision.

This role suits someone who works well in a fast-paced environment, stays focused under pressure and is comfortable operating in freezer, chiller and dry store areas. It’s physical, it’s practical and it’s essential to the success of hospitality businesses.

About the role

On a typical day, you’ll be picking and assembling customer orders, loading trucks, managing inbound stock and helping keep our warehouse tidy, organised and running like clockwork. You’ll rotate across dry, chilled and frozen duties, so no two shifts feel quite the same. The role will also require you to:

Pick and assemble goods accurately

Load trucks efficiently and safely

Receive, put away and rotate stock

Maintain tidy and accurate bin locations

Perform duties in freezer environments (down to -25°C)

Support warehouse housekeeping and safety protocols

Work overtime when required to meet demand

About you

We’re looking for someone who enjoys the physical side of work, can be relied on to show up and work hard and takes pride in doing a job properly. You’re punctual, practical and a team player. The kind of person others can count on when it gets busy.

If you’ve worked in hospitality or kitchens before and understand the pace and importance of getting things right, that experience translates perfectly to this role. Previous warehouse experience and a forklift licence are an advantage, but more important is your work ethic, attitude and willingness to learn.

Skills and experience

To thrive in this role, you’ll bring a solid work ethic, physical readiness and a willingness to work across different environments as part of a reliable team.

Forklift licence with reach experience (essential)

MR Licence (advantageous)Physically fit and comfortable with manual handling

Previous warehouse or storeperson experience (a plus)

Good communication and time management skills

Comfortable working across freezer, chiller and dry areas

Must be available to work the 10pm to 6am Night Shift

Able to pass a pre-employment medical (if required)
