Job Description:

Warehouse Operative - Competitive salary, depending on experience - Cranleigh, West Sussex (RH12)

What we're looking for

A hands-on Warehouse Operative who takes pride in a job done properly and enjoys being part of a team that gets stuck in together. You'll be organised, reliable, and happiest when there's a result to show for your work at the end of the day.

Every event Chord Event delivers starts in our warehouse long before our crew reaches site. This role helps keep that process running - making sure the equipment behind some of the world's most incredible events is always ready to go. 

The role

As a Warehouse Operative, you’ll make sure our hire equipment is picked, packed, checked and ready to go. You’ll also help look after returning stock, keep the warehouse organised and support the wider team during busy periods.

This is a full-time role based at our Cranleigh warehouse, working 37.5 hours per week. Some extended hours and Saturdays will be required during our April–October peak season.

Key Responsibilities

You’ll be responsible for:

• Picking, packing and preparing equipment for upcoming events.
• Inspecting, cleaning and looking after hire stock.
• Checking returned equipment for damage or maintenance needs.
• Keeping stock correctly labelled, organised and easy to find.
• Helping prepare load lists and load vehicles.
• Carrying out warehouse and Health & Safety checks.
• Working closely with our warehouse, logistics and site teams.

About our company

Chord Event creates premium temporary structures for high-profile events around the world.

Now in our tenth year, we work with some of the world’s most recognisable brands. We’re growing quickly, but we’ve kept the friendly, practical team culture that has helped us get here.

The Benefits

• Competitive salary based on experience.
• 25 days’ holiday plus Bank Holidays.
• Full training and ongoing development.
• Genuine opportunities to progress.
• Access to the Bright HR platform.
• Varied work where no two weeks are quite the same.

The person

You’ll be practical, dependable and willing to get stuck in.

Warehouse or logistics experience would be useful, but isn’t essential as training is provided. A forklift licence, clean driving licence or events experience would also be an advantage.

You’ll need to be physically fit, comfortable with manual handling and happy working flexible hours during busy periods.
