What Sets Our Warehouse Division Apart
Our Light Industrial Staffing division has placed certified FLT operators across some of the UK's busiest logistics networks. We understand that warehouse operations cannot pause — a single vacant truck driving seat can stall an entire dispatch cycle. That is precisely why we maintain a live-ready pool of vetted operatives who can step onto your site at short notice, fully briefed on health and safety compliance, including HSE Forklift Safety Standards ↗.
Same-Day & Next-Day Starts
Our 24/7 ops desk processes placements within hours. No prolonged onboarding — just site-ready operatives.
Licence & Compliance Verification
Every FLT licence — RTITB, ITSSAR, NPORS — is verified before deployment. DBS checks and right-to-work documentation handled as standard.
Temp-to-Perm Pathways
Temporary roles frequently convert to permanent positions. Over 30% of our warehouse placements become long-term hires within 12 weeks.
Weekly PAYE Pay
All workers are paid weekly via PAYE with holiday pay accrued from day one — fully compliant with the Working Time Regulations ↗.
Real Results from Real Placements
A 300,000 sq ft Midlands distribution hub faced a critical shortage of 18 FLT operators ahead of a peak retail period. Team Temping Agency sourced, vetted and deployed all 18 operatives within 36 hours, preventing an estimated £120,000 in delayed dispatch penalties. Ten of those workers remained on site for a further three months on rolling contracts.
A fast-growing e-commerce brand operating out of an East London fulfilment centre required a flexible team of 25 pick-and-pack operatives plus 4 reach truck drivers for a 10-week seasonal contract. Our team filled all 29 positions with a zero-absence record across the entire contract period, contributing to a 17% improvement in order fulfilment speed.
