Pickers and packers
Scanner picking, pick to light and packing benches for retail and online orders.
Warehouse operatives

Forklift drivers
Counterbalance, reach and VNA drivers, with their certificates checked before they start.
Team leaders
To run a shift or a section, especially on nights when the site manager has gone home.
Where we staff
The work here follows the motorways rather than sitting in one place. Trafford Park and Port Salford both sit on the Manchester Ship Canal. Kingsway in Rochdale and the Heywood distribution parks line the M62 between junctions 19 and 21. Logistics North sits off the M61 near Bolton, and freight work clusters around Manchester Airport.
We also staff smaller sheds in Wigan and Leigh, Ashton and the Tameside estates, Oldham and Stockport, where a site may only need a few extra people on a busy week.
Plenty of these shifts start before the first bus. We only put forward people who can reach your site at that hour, whether by car, by a shared lift or on foot from nearby.

Staff on site
Checked people arrive for the agreed shift. For a new contract or peak team, everyone is inducted before day one.
- Cover for a shift
- Next day. Tell us today and we will have checked staff on your site for tomorrow's shift.
- New contracts and peak teams
- One week's notice, so every person is checked, briefed and inducted before the first shift.
What we check
Every worker is checked before we put them forward. You will not see a name until these are done.
Right to work checked against original documents or the Home Office online service before the first shift.
Identity and references photo ID seen, and work references taken up.
Lift truck certificates for forklift and reach roles, a current certificate from a recognised body such as RTITB, AITT, ITSSAR or NPORS, with a copy kept on file.
Your site rules safety footwear, hi vis, induction times and any site specific training agreed with you at booking.
Peak season around the M60
Online retail and parcel sites around the M60 take on temporary staff from October to January, and every agency recruits from the same people at the same time. If you know roughly what your peak will look like, tell us in the summer. That gives us the weeks we need to find and check people before everyone else starts looking.
