Warehouse - Taiko Acton- BONSAI
Contract: Full Time
Salary: £45,000-£50,000
Contracted Hours: 45
We’re Taiko — the people behind some of the UK’s most innovative Sushi, Food to Go and Prepared Meals.
Since 1997, we’ve been shaking things up, launching more first-to-market sushi and food-to-go products than anyone else in the UK. You’ll find us supplying Tesco, Waitrose, Sainsbury’s and more — but we still think and move like a challenger brand.
Fast paced. Always evolving. Never standing still.

- Comfortable working with ERP/WMS systems and data (Excel skills essential)
- A natural problem-solver with strong organisational and negotiation skills
