« Little shops we like #566,213 (or there abouts): Little Duckling | Main | Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the toughest of them all? »

October 21, 2011

Thor, where art thou?

We are looking for a tough person.  Someone who likes the cold a lot (or who owns a good, thick Nordic strength jacket).  You see, we need a hand at the Warehouse down in Millwall from now until Christmas (maybe longer).

Didn't know we have a fancy warehouse?  Yeps.  It's located in South East London, near South Bermondsey station.  There, every day, our Andy and Jonas tirelessly unpack deliveries from Scandinavia, re-pack goods to send to customers for the webshop - and also deal with lots of our wholesale queries.

As we approach the festive seasons, Scandi ex-pats across the land will realise they are missing pinnekjot/prinskorv/medister and they'll start to stock up.  Therefore, we are looking for a strong person to come join them in Millwall starting asap - for about 30 hours a week (increasing to full time as we get busier). 

A bit about what you’ll be doing

  • Completing and packing daily orders from the web shop, ensuring they are correct and nobody gets fiskebuller when they have ordered loksill.
  • Developing an almost OCD like behaviour when it comes to stock control and dates on goods
  • Liaise with the couriers, chase packages, books packages, liaise with the driver when he picks up parcels to ensure extra checks are made
  • Take deliveries in from Scandinavia and ensure the invoices reflect the delivery
  • Ensure logic shelving and storage is implemented and adhered to at all times
  • Update stock levels on the web shop (onto the web shop site)
  • Make some local deliveries to customers and delivery to our cafe using our fancy new white chiller van
  • Ride a chariot across the heavens and throw hammers at intruders (maybe)

Who are you?

  • Strong and able to carry and lift a load of stuff
  • Eye for details  and understand importance of date checking and stock control
  • Logic and systemised approach to daily responsibilities
  • Good on the phone and e-mail, dealing with customers the Scandi Kitchen way
  • Able to deal with people on all levels, good interpersonal skills
  • Computer literate
  • In possession of a driving licence (your own, please) (essential)
  • Able to read/write a Scandinavian language (essential)

There’s scope to take on more responsibility as we grow and get more involved with the business – although for the first months, this is most definitely a physically demanding job - and it will be working in a cold environment as the winter starts.   The role is base at our warehouse space in MillWall, South Bermondsey and it is Mon-Fri hours (hours vary – some starts are really early, some late mornings).

Interested?  Ping over your CV along with a cover note about why you’d be perfect for this role, to: bronte@scandikitchen.co.uk

Job starts as soon as possible.
