Stores Team Member – Head Office

Full-Time | Reports to: Transport Manager

At Wenzel’s the Bakers, we’ve been proudly serving our local communities with quality baked goods since 1975. As a family-founded business, our values are rooted in community, quality, and innovation. We believe in creating a supportive workplace where our people feel valued, empowered, and able to thrive.

We’re now looking for a reliable and detail-focused Stores Person to join our Head Office team and play a vital role in keeping our operation running smoothly.

The Role

As a Stores Team Member, you’ll ensure stock is received, stored, controlled, and issued accurately and safely. You’ll help maintain a clean, compliant, and well-organised stores and yard environment while supporting stock control and ordering activities.

This is a hands-on role suited to someone who enjoys being active, organised, and part of a busy operational team.

Key Responsibilities

  • Receive and check deliveries for quantity, condition, temperature, and accuracy against paperwork
  • Accurately record goods in using company systems
  • Maintain clean and tidy site, inside and out
  • Store stock safely using correct stacking, labelling, and location controls
  • Pick and issue stock correctly and efficiently
  • Carry out regular stock checks, cycle counts, and support full stock takes
  • Investigate discrepancies and report variances
  • Monitor stock levels and highlight shortages or trends
  • Maintain excellent housekeeping standards across the stores, warehouse, and yard
  • Manage pallets, waste, recycling, and external yard safety
  • Safely load and unload vehicles when required
  • Operate MHE/FLT equipment (subject to training and authorisation)
  • Follow all health and safety procedures including PPE and safe manual handling
  • Complete required training and support wider operational needs when necessary

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
