WHY OCADO?
Here at Ocado Logistics, it’s our mission to provide an outstanding customer experience for our partners, developing groundbreaking technology, opening multiple sites at an accelerating rate and engaging in exciting new business partnerships around the world - changing the way the world shops, for good.
We are the beating heart of our UK business and comprise a network of cutting edge warehouses and offices across the country that ensure that we optimise the experience and use our proprietary technology across the supply chain to deliver an exceptional shopping experience. At the same time delivering bags of possibilities for our employees and a career that will ensure no two days are ever the same.
ABOUT THE ROLE:
We wouldn’t be able to positively impact the way the world shops without our passionate team members - who keep our business running, our vans delivering, our customers' products picked and packed and our proprietary technology operating at optimum levels. Both behind the scenes within the warehouses and across the front end of the customer experience which means we now have an opportunity for a Technical Assistant to join the Engineering team at our flagship Dordon facility.
As a Technical Assistant, this role is the start of your career and transition into Engineering. With dedicated training, mentoring, and support, you will build essential foundational skills, and with the right ambition, hard work, and commitment, you could go as far as you desire, progressing towards becoming a fully qualified Engineer in the future.
Working a Panama shift pattern to support our continuous 24/7 operations, you will play a key part in keeping our highly automated systems running safely, efficiently, and smoothly.
