🕒 Full-time | Likely shifts: 8:30am–5:30pm or 9:00am–6:00pm
Are you a confident people leader with experience in a busy warehouse or logistics environment?
This is an exciting opportunity to join a fast-growing business supplying customers across industries including aerospace, Formula One, engineering, pharmaceuticals, oil and gas, and manufacturing.
Mirable’s client operates within the metals industry—a stable and essential market offering excellent long-term career prospects. As the business continues to grow, it is looking for a strong, energetic leader who can motivate a team, plan ahead and consistently deliver outstanding customer service.
The Opportunity
You’ll take responsibility for leading a small warehouse team and ensuring each shift runs safely, efficiently and with the customer firmly in mind.
This is not simply a role focused on today’s workload. You’ll need to anticipate demand and plan resources up to two weeks ahead, ensuring the team is prepared for upcoming priorities and service requirements.
Working collaboratively with other team leaders, you’ll communicate the wider vision, balance operational demands with the needs of your people and help create a positive, accountable working environment.

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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
