A goods depot in the Kobanya industrial zone of Budapest is hiring forklift drivers for its inbound and outbound bays.

About role
You unload trailers with a counterbalance truck, move pallets to the reserve racking with a reach truck and refill the picking aisles as the stock drops. Every movement is confirmed on the terminal, so the location and the pallet number must agree before you drive away. Before the shift you run the daily check on the truck, forks, mast, horn, brakes and battery, and write anything faulty in the log. Two shifts alternate weekly, 06:00-14:00 and 14:00-22:00, with every second Saturday worked and paid at the overtime rate.
