About Us

Are you ready to embark on a career with a company that places both its employees and customers at the heart of everything we do? If you're a motivated, customer-focused individual with a clean driving licence and a can-do attitude, we want to hear from you.

You’ll fit in well with us at Medstrom, where we have disrupted the market by providing proven and well-evidenced products and services to our busy customers, helping to make a real difference to both their workload and crucially their patients’ outcomes.

Established in 2010, Medstrom has grown substantially by being patient focused to become the organisation we are today, whilst maintaining an open culture and ethos. In 2022, Medstrom became an Employee Ownership Trust (EOT), unlike any other company in the industry. This allows each employee to have a vested interest in the company, where we can all contribute to and share in the company’s success.

We’re now looking for a Logistics Operative to join our Manufacturing Team on a full-time, temporary basis (for 6 months) working Monday to Friday.

The Benefits

- Receive a treat on your birthday (if it falls within the contract)

Here at Medstrom, we’re dedicated to and focused on delivering the best service possible, and to achieve this, we need amazing people in our team. That’s where you come in.

We believe that our people are what makes us great, which is why we offer a high level of support, as well as learning and development opportunities, to ensure our employees can succeed.

- Support the preparation of products for despatch, ensuring they are packaged, loaded and handled correctly to eliminate damage during transit
- Ensure all goods in/despatch paperwork is submitted to the relevant internal parties in a timely manner

About You

To join us as a Logistics Operative (temp), you will need:

- Full UK driving licence to travel between business sites
