Company Description

Looking for a hands-on role where you can really own your day and be part of something bigger? Come join The Warehouse Group (TWG) - home to some of Aotearoa’s most iconic brands including The Warehouse, Warehouse Stationery, and Noel Leeming.

At our Distribution Centre (DC), one of the largest in the country we’re the engine room behind our stores. Every day, we’re getting the right products, to the right place, at the right time for our customers. And during peak season, this mission kicks into overdrive - so we’re growing our team to keep the momentum going strong.

Job Description

We’re on the lookout for motivated, reliable team players to join our Containers / Inwards Team. If you love rolling up your sleeves, tackling challenges, and working with a great bunch of people - you’ll thrive here.

This role is all about being the first touchpoint in the DC stock journey. You’ll play a key role in unloading, processing, and preparing stock for distribution. It’s fast-paced, physical, and no two days are quite the same.

What you’ll be doing:

• Devanning containers and unloading cartons (1kg–20kg)
• Sorting stock by barcode
• Using RF scanners to track product movement
• Operating pallet jacks, box cutters, and strapping machines
• Bulk picking and stock management
• Jumping in where needed to support the team and get the job done

This is a fixed term position until the end of January 2027.

Monday – Friday, 6:30am – 3:00pm

$30.28/hr

Please note: This role is to support our Peak Period through to January 2027. As it is our busiest time of the year, we are unlikely to be able to approve any extended leave across this time including around Christmas and New Years (Please note, we do not work public holidays).

Qualifications

What We’re Looking For

• Physically fit and comfortable lifting throughout the day
• Strong attention to detail and accuracy
• Good communication skills (verbal and written)
• A team mindset but confident working independently
• Time management and problem-solving skills
• Previous warehouse experience is a bonus - but not essential!

To be considered for this role, you must be legally entitled to work in New Zealand.
