Packer
Orders packed right, protected and out the door
Reliable warehouse packer with five years packing and dispatching orders in fast-paced distribution and production environments in Birmingham. Picks, checks, packs and labels products accurately to packing standards, protects fragile goods, and keeps pack stations clean and moving to meet daily targets. Helped redesign a pack station layout that lifted packing speed and cut packaging waste across the line. Works to quality and accuracy checks, handles a range of products and packaging, operates pack equipment safely, and keeps up the pace through busy periods. Dependable, fast and careful, with a strong eye for getting the right item, undamaged, into the right box. Happy to train new packers and take on overtime. Looking for a packer or warehouse-operative role with an operation that values accuracy and reliability.
