Reporting To: Depot Manager
Contract Type: Permanent / Full Time - 37.5 hours per week
The Felix Project
The Felix Project is London's biggest food redistribution charity and the largest end-to-end food redistribution charity in Europe.
Our vision is a London where no one goes hungry and good food is never wasted.
We rescue surplus food from businesses, supermarkets, restaurants and farms. This food is nutritious, in-date, and safe and includes a high proportion of fresh vegetables, fruit, meat and fish. If we did not rescue this food, it would be at risk of going to waste. Instead, we deliver it free of charge to London charities, schools, food banks, food hubs and other organisations serving people in need. Our food is a vital lifeline for children and families, people on low incomes, people who have lost their jobs, the homeless, refugees, domestic abuse survivors, the elderly and keyworkers.
We are a very ambitious and dynamic young charity and we haven’t stopped growing since we were founded in 2016 in memory of Felix Byam Shaw, by his father, entrepreneur Justin Byam Shaw. We recently ran a very high-profile media campaign with the Evening Standard and Independent, raising £10million to feed London. We have celebrity endorsement from Reece James, Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Jack Whitehall, Steven Fry, James May and many others.
Last year we delivered enough food for 30 million meals to help people in need. Because nearly all the food we receive is donated by the food industry and volunteers, every £1 of expenditure redistributes £10 worth of food.
Purpose of the Job
We are looking for the Warehouse Team Leader to play a key role in our depot operations, with exceptional organisation skills, excellent people skills, attention to detail and a positive ‘can do’ attitude’. Ideally, you will have a background in warehousing or other operational roles, however, we are willing to train people who are passionate about our cause, have an excellent work ethic, and have strong customer service skills.
Duties and Responsibilities
The role is subject to a degree of flexibility but initially, the Team Leader will be involved with the following activities:
- Managing a team of staff and volunteers to run a warehouse of chilled and ambient food
- Customer relations management of the community organisations we work with
- Proper use of our Warehouse Management System
- Physically moving stock around on warehouse on a pallet truck or by hand
- Ensuring the warehouse is clean, safe and efficiently run
- Daily briefings of staff and volunteers of the days priorities and what to be aware of
- Carry out regular stock counts of food we are storing
- Appropriately handle product recalls
- Day to day problem solving
- Covering Goods In, Warehouse Management Duties and Goods Out and general procedures
