Role story (site reality, not marketing)

Warehouses serving e-commerce and retail run on measurable precision: correct item, correct location, correct count. This vacancy exists because the sites need an English-speaking layer in day-to-day operations (training, briefings, and quality control).

Day-in-the-life snapshot

  • Start-of-shift brief: zone assignment, safety reminders, target rules for the day.
  • Picking cycles: scan location → confirm item → confirm quantity → place into tote/cart.
  • Quality moments: spot checks, recounts, and reporting mismatches (no “guessing”).
  • Staging: finished orders go to a defined staging area for packing/dispatch.
Work permit / legalization: read the internal MaViAl guide here: Work Permit (Zezwolenie)
Work authorization support depends on the candidate status and the specific employer policy. Possibilities are confirmed individually and in writing.

Requirements (detailed, practical)

This is a performance-and-accuracy warehouse role. The best candidates are reliable, fast learners who treat scanning rules as non-negotiable.

Must-have

  • English communication for training, safety instructions, and daily briefings.
  • Scanner discipline: you follow “scan-confirm” steps without shortcuts.
  • Physical readiness: standing/walking for long periods; frequent bending and reaching.
  • Accuracy mindset: you keep error rate low even during peak volumes.
  • Safety behavior: you respect warehouse traffic lanes, pedestrian zones, and PPE rules.

Nice-to-have

  • Any prior experience in order picking / packing / inbound / inventory.
  • Basic Polish for everyday situations (not required for this role).
  • Comfort with shift work (including weekends during peak season, site-dependent).

Work style fit (what matters on site)

  • You keep a steady tempo — fast, but not chaotic.
  • You can ask clarifying questions instead of improvising.
  • You handle repetitive tasks without losing focus.
  • You respect “one system, one truth”: the scanner record is the reference.
Non-negotiable: No CV — no review.

What you will do (scanner/RF order picking)

  • Pick by location codes: follow warehouse slots/racks and confirm each step on the scanner.
  • Stage completed orders: move finished totes/carts to the correct staging point for packing or dispatch.
  • Report mismatches: wrong label, missing item, damaged packaging — logged and escalated, not “fixed silently”.
  • Support inventory flow: light replenishment moves or directed counts when requested by a team lead.

Performance signals you will be measured on

Accuracy
Correct item + correct quantity
Pick rate
Targets defined per site/zone
Safety compliance
PPE + traffic rules

Targets exist on most fulfillment sites. They are explained during onboarding and increased gradually during the ramp-up period.

Short candidate portrait (who succeeds here)

You will likely do well in this job if you enjoy structured routines, respect systems, and can repeat correct actions consistently. Being “fast” is useful only when paired with accuracy and safe movement.

  • You treat scanning steps as a checklist, not a suggestion.
  • You keep focus during repetitive tasks and peak volumes.
  • You prefer clear targets and measurable results.
  • You communicate early when you see a mismatch or risk.
Reality check (honest):
Warehouses can be loud, fast, and physically demanding. If you like “always different” work, this may feel repetitive. If you like predictable rules and steady progression, it is often a strong fit.

Tools you will use

  • Handheld scanner (RF) or voice picking (site-dependent).
  • Labels, tote/cart workflow, staging zones.
  • Basic warehouse signage: lanes, zones, slot numbering.

FAQ

What is the difference between a picker and a packer?

Pickers collect items from warehouse locations and confirm them in the system. Packers prepare parcels for shipment. Some sites rotate roles, but this vacancy is picker-first.

What scanners are used (handheld RF or voice picking)?

Most sites use handheld RF scanners. Some use voice systems. The exact tool and workflow are explained during onboarding and the first days of ramp-up.

Are there performance targets (pick rate)?

Yes. Targets are site- and zone-specific. They are communicated during onboarding and typically increase gradually during the training period.

Is this suitable for beginners?

Yes, if you learn quickly and follow scanner steps precisely. Reliability, attention to detail, and safe movement matter more than “warehouse confidence.”

Do you accept applications without a CV?

No. CV is mandatory. Applications without a CV are not reviewed.

What is the minimum gross pay floor in Poland from 01 Jan 2026?

From 01 Jan 2026, the statutory minimum wage is PLN 4,806 gross per month (full-time). The minimum hourly rate is PLN 31.40 gross per hour (where hourly minimum applies). Project-specific gross rates are confirmed in writing before onboarding.
