I coordinate with the logistics team to support efficient scheduling and workflow, ensuring vehicles are prepared in line with operational requirements.
I regularly use hand tools and machinery in accordance with health and safety regulations, and carry out building maintenance tasks, including the safe operation of a cherry picker for elevated work. Additionally, I process and align pallets on a jig for automated robotic stacking, maintaining accuracy and efficiency. I also support HGV maintenance and repair by removing and refitting components such as sumps, bumpers, wings, and side panels, and assist with bumper preparation and painting to help restore vehicles to a safe and roadworthy condition under supervisor guidance.
