7am-3pm Monday - Saturday

2pm-10pm Monday - Friday

£12.50 - £14.25 per hour

Temp to perm opportunities | Immediate starts available | No experience? No problem.

Not just Christmas work.

Finally, a warehouse job that doesn't treat you like a robot.

Tired of being shouted at in hi-viz hell?

Had enough of breaking your back lifting pallets for companies that see you as expendable?

This isn't one of those jobs.

At our client's Distribution Centre in Swan Valley, Northampton, you'll wear your own clothes and join a team that actually gives a damn about treating people properly.

The warehouse is clean, tidy, warm in the winter and cool in the summer. It's a brand new site, clean and tidy and easily accessible.

What you'll actually be doing:

Receiving stock, putting it away, picking orders through an automated system, and sorting clothing by style and size. Maximum lift is 10-15kg, nothing back-breaking.

Simple work. Steady work.

Why this beats your current situation:

Wear your own clothes. Light duties only. Consistent hours available, you won't get sent home early. Friendly environment where you're treated like an adult. Full training provided, no experience needed. No multiple rotating shifts, just fixed day shift hours.

The extras:

Staff canteen with proper food, not just vending machines. Free parking because paying to work is ridiculous. Staff sales on discounted clothing. Gary, our Impact Account Manager, is on site daily.

What we need from you:

Turn up when you say you will. Be committed to ongoing work, not just a few weeks before you start uni. Follow instructions, ask questions if unsure. Work well with others without the drama. Be comfortable on your feet and able to handle basic manual tasks.

That's it. No degree required. No 5 years' warehouse experience.

Prove yourself and this could become permanent. Real career progression, not empty promises.

Ready to work somewhere that doesn't suck?

Apply now for immediate consideration. No CV, Google Impact Recruitment and call us or come into our office.

This role is filled through Impact Recruitment. We'll give you straight answers about the role, the company, and what to expect.

Robotics Hiring Trends 2026: What to Watch Out For (For Job Seekers & Recruiters)

As we move into 2026, the UK robotics jobs market is in a strange but interesting place. On one hand, UK manufacturers, logistics firms and warehouses must automate to stay competitive, tackle labour shortages and meet productivity and net-zero targets. On the other hand, the UK still lags badly behind peers in robot adoption, with relatively low robot density in factories compared with other advanced economies – which is both a challenge and a massive opportunity. The National Robotarium +1 Add in AI, computer vision and edge computing, and you get a robotics landscape that is: More selective in hiring. More focused on real operational outcomes. More integrated with software, data and safety standards. Whether you are a robotics job seeker planning your next move, or a recruiter building automation and robotics teams, this guide explores the key robotics hiring trends for 2026.

Robotics Recruitment Trends 2025 (UK): What Job Seekers Need To Know About Today’s Hiring Process

Summary: UK robotics hiring has shifted from toolbox checklists to capability‑driven evaluation that emphasises deployed systems, safety, reliability and total cost of ownership. Employers want proof you can ship and sustain robots in production—industrial arms & cobots, AMRs/AGVs, field robots, surgical/med‑tech, warehouse automation, inspection & maintenance. This guide explains what’s changed, what to expect in interviews and how to prepare—especially for robotics software engineers (ROS/ROS 2), perception/vision engineers, controls & motion planners, mechatronics & embedded, safety & compliance, test/V&V, DevOps/SRE for fleets, and robotics product managers. Who this is for: Robotics software/perception/controls engineers, mechatronics & embedded, simulation & test, DevOps/SRE for robotics fleets, HRI/UX, safety/compliance, field/commissioning engineers, and product/technical programme managers in the UK.

Why Robotics Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Robotics used to be the domain of mechanical, electrical and software engineers. In the UK today, robotics is more than motors and control loops — it’s about perception, interaction, trust, regulation and integration into human environments. That evolution means robotics careers are becoming more multidisciplinary. Modern robots interact with people, collect data, operate under constraints, and often assist in safety-critical environments (healthcare, manufacturing, transport). So engineers now collaborate closely with legal, ethical, psychological, linguistic and design experts. In this article, we explore why UK robotics careers are evolving into multidisciplinary roles, how law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design intersect with robotics, and how job-seekers and employers can adapt to this shift.
