Established in 1981, Richard Austin Alloys has grown to become one of the UK’s largest independent metal stockholders. We specialise in next day delivery of aluminium and stainless steel, supplying a wide range of engineering and manufacturing customers across the South East.

Our reputation is built on reliability, speed and service, and our warehouse teams play a key role in making that happen every day.

Due to continued growth at our Strood operation, we are now looking to bring additional Warehouse Operatives into our evening shift. This role is ideal for someone looking for shorter, consistent hours, with the opportunity to build more hours over time as the business continues to expand.

Working as part of a friendly and experienced warehouse team, you will be responsible for picking, packing and loading metal products ready for delivery to customers who operate on a just in time basis.

Accuracy and attention to detail are important, as is a positive approach to working safely and efficiently. While the tasks themselves are straightforward, this is a role where reliability, teamwork and taking pride in doing a job properly really count.

We are keen to support people who show commitment, with opportunities to build on the role and increase hours where possible.

• Comfortable with hands‑on, physical warehouse work
• Reliable, punctual and keen to contribute as part of a team
• Positive attitude and willingness to learn
• Good communication skills
• Previous warehouse experience is useful but not essential, as training will be provided.

This role would suit someone looking to top up their income, balance work around other commitments, or take a first step into warehouse work with a growing and well‑established business.
