Other Important Notes

This is a hands on position where you’ll spend the majority of your time working with and directing the team on the warehouse floor.

If you are seeking a primarily desk based operations role, this position will not be suitable.

Kurdle is also currently in the process of introducing barcode scanners across the warehouse to streamline accuracy and efficiency, and you will play an important role in that rollout.
