Hi Phil.

Here is a little more information on the Warrington Hub.

The shift patterns are not particularly attractive if you're used to fixed shifts ie mornings lates and nights. Shifts are now longer but spread over shorter days, this is one example of a shift pattern below

Mon 2:45pm - 3:15am 12hr shift
Tues 4:45pm - 5am 12hr shift
Wed 4:45pm - 5am 12hr shift

A few examples of the roles on offer and will depend on what you are trained up to do.

Small chutes
Large chutes
Tipping
Infeeding
York/Sleeve building
Crossdock
Non conveyor

Please feel free to any more questions and I'll do my best to answer.

Is it fully operational now? Our MC only receives D2DO/pre-sorted H&L parcels for about 2 of our 30-odd DOs. The rest still has to be scanned and manually sorted.
