Looking for a well-paid, hands-on job with great earning potential and plenty of days off?

We're looking for Production Packers to join a busy, growing manufacturing company in Cheltenham, with the opportunity to secure a permanent position after just 12 weeks.

This isn't just another packing job!

You'll be working in a fast-paced production environment, helping to prepare finished products for delivery and making sure everything is packed safely, securely and to a high standard.

If you're hardworking, enjoy being part of a team and like a job that keeps you active, this could be the perfect opportunity.

You don't need previous packing experience. We're looking for reliable, motivated people who are willing to learn, get stuck in and take pride in their work.



What's in it for you?

  • £15.99 per hour starting rate

  • Pay increase to £17.00 per hour once trained and signed off on all required skillsets

  • £35,000+ annual earning potential based on standard hours at the higher rate

  • Overtime opportunities with the potential to boost earnings to £40,000+

  • Enhanced overtime rates:

    • Weekdays - 1.5x

    • Sunday - 2x

  • 12-week temp-to-perm opportunity

  • Weekly pay while working on a temporary basis

  • 4 on, 4 off shift pattern - 2 days, 2 nights, followed by 4 days off

  • 12-hour shifts - 6am-6pm and 6pm-6am

  • Full training and opportunities to develop new skills

  • A supportive team environment within a growing manufacturing company



What will you be doing?

You'll be part of the packing team responsible for preparing finished products for distribution, ensuring everything is handled safely and packed to the required standards.

Your day-to-day responsibilities will include:

  • Packing finished products directly from the production line

  • Using overhead cranes to assist with the safe handling and packing of products

  • Wrapping and securing products to ensure they're protected during transportation

  • Preparing orders for dispatch and making sure products are ready for delivery

  • Checking product quality and spotting any damage or issues before dispatch

  • Keeping the packing area organised and maintaining a clean, safe working environment

  • Working as part of a team to meet production targets and keep everything moving smoothly



What are we looking for?

We're looking for people who are hardworking, reliable and enjoy being part of a busy team.

You'll be a great fit if you:

  • Enjoy practical, hands-on work

  • Have a strong work ethic and take pride in doing a job properly

  • Are reliable, punctual and willing to learn

  • Have good attention to detail

  • Work well as part of a team

  • Are comfortable working in a busy manufacturing environment

  • Take health and safety seriously

  • Can commit to rotating 12-hour day and night shifts

  • Have a driving licence and your own transport due to the location

You don't need previous packing or manufacturing experience.

If you've worked in a warehouse, factory, production or packing environment before, that's a bonus, but we're just as interested in people with the right attitude and willingness to learn.



A role where your hard work is rewarded

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone looking for more than just a temporary job.

You'll receive training to develop your skills and become confident in different areas of the packing operation.

And the best part? Once you've completed your training and been signed off on all the required skillsets, your hourly rate increases from £15.99 to £17.00!

With enhanced overtime rates of up to double time on Sundays, there's also the opportunity to increase your earnings even further.

Combine that with a 4 on, 4 off shift pattern, regular four-day breaks and the opportunity to secure a permanent position after 12 weeks, and you've got a great opportunity to build a long-term career with a growing manufacturing company.



Sound like your kind of job?

If you're hardworking, reliable and looking for a well-paid role where you can develop your skills, increase your earnings and become part of a great team, we'd love to hear from you.
