The Opportunity

We're expanding our small but perfectly formed VetBox Fulfilment team and looking to hire a new Fulfilment Executive, based out of our Thornbury office.

Since 2021, VetBox is part of ManyPets and we're working together to make the world a better place for pets and their parents. ManyPets has already helped over half a million pet owners keep their pets happy and healthy - and we're delighted to be a part of the journey together.

In this role you’ll be responsible for order processing and fulfilment (including picking and packing) as part of our warehouse operations team. Reporting to the Warehouse Manager, you'll work side-by-side to ensure the smooth running of our new and existing orders, inventory management and quality control. It's a highly collaborative role as our Fulfilment Executives work closely with our customer service team, manufacturers, suppliers, and logistics – as well as all the other team members within ManyPets.

Your Focus

  • Use our packaging materials and machinery to pack, weigh, and label completed items for shipment to our customers.
  • Use of our forklift machinery, as required.
  • Oversee quality control for our items prior to dispatch.
  • Ensure that service level agreements ("SLAs") and customer expectations are met.
  • Follow all of our company guidelines regarding packaging and processes.
  • Identify and dispose of defective items, sharing updates with the Warehouse Manager.
  • Keep complete and accurate records of all materials that go through the warehouse.
  • Maintain a clean work area and ensure health and safety standards are followed at all times.

  • You enjoy responsibility and can deliver results against targets. You put your arms around projects, working side-by-side with your team to get things done on time and to budget.
  • You’re able to work and learn quickly in a fast-paced and often changeable environment.

Inclusion at ManyPets

Hybrid-Working

We work from home and our company offices in the UK, so we've created our "Making Work, Work" guide which explains it all. We offer a fantastic range of company benefits to suit everyone in a remote-first world, with a focus on supporting our physical and mental wellbeing.

On a typical day you’ll be working from a laptop with a screen, mouse, keyboard, and headset. You’ll be meeting your colleagues on Zoom and keeping in touch regularly via email and Slack too – we’d expect you to be using your computer for around seven hours a day. We’d ask that you have a distraction-free work area and a reliable internet connection with a speed of 25Mbps so you can work effectively. We’ll make sure you have the right home set-up that supports you in the role by providing best-in-class technology, money towards a desk, and vision support. We’re open to discussing any adjustments you may need too – we’ll be in touch before you join to discuss what you need to be at your best.
