About the role

Intro

Our warehouse in Paunsdorf (Leipzig), currently specialized in shipping cardboard boxes and packaging materials, is a growing project within Händlerbund. And this is exactly where you come in as Warehouse Employee (m/f/d) from January 2027. You won't just be "going along with it." You will take on a key role.

In your role, you ensure that our in-house warehouse runs in a scalable, efficient and error-free way, and you make a significant contribution to the growth of this division. Your work determines how reliably we deliver, how satisfied our customers are and how strongly we can continue to grow.

Your tasks

Core areas:

  • Goods receiving & goods dispatch
  • Order picking & returns processing
  • Packing & shrink-wrapping packages and pallets
  • Handling a growing order volume, including achieving defined KPIs
  • Ensuring customer satisfaction
  • Maintaining and preserving a flawless warehouse location
  • Handling our technical warehouse systems
  • Ensuring permanent delivery capability through forward-looking materials management (packaging materials, pallets, etc.)

In addition:

  • Actively generating ideas for process optimization
  • Constructive problem-solving when challenges arise
  • Guiding and coordinating temporary staff during busier periods

In short: You are operationally strong and think strategically at the same time. You get your hands dirty and keep developing. You ensure that quality does not suffer as volume grows.

Your profile

You are a good fit for us if you already have initial warehouse experience (2-3 years) and enjoy being able to help shape and take on responsibility.

  • Professional experience in warehouse logistics: You bring experience in goods receiving (WE), goods dispatch (WA) and order picking (KOM). Terms such as FIFO, inventory management and pallet accounts are not theory to you but part of everyday practice.
  • Confident use of merchandise management systems: You work routinely with merchandise management and warehouse systems and always keep track of inventory and processes.
  • Resilience & physical capability: You are able to carry out tasks in the warehouse independently, even when they are physically demanding.
  • Problem-solving skills: You quickly analyze complex situations and find pragmatic, actionable solutions.
  • Adaptability: Our warehouse is growing and structures are evolving. You remain flexible, prioritize logically and stay focused even under pressure.
  • Communication skills: You communicate clearly, proactively and confidently with internal teams, external partners and your warehouse team.
  • Deliver +1 mentality: You aim to do things not just correctly, but better. You recognize optimization potential and act on your own responsibility.

If your values match our company values, this leads to a long-term and trusting way of working together.

Why us?

Work that fits your life

  • Shaping rather than just doing: Do you want to think ahead, contribute and really make an impact? That is exactly what Händlerbund is about. Here, initiative counts, and so does teamwork: at joint events, summer parties or relaxed lunch breaks at the grill, fun is never neglected.
  • Snacks & style: Whether coffee, water, muesli or fruit, you are taken care of with us. Dress code? Not at all. Just be yourself.
  • Benefits that matter: Kindergarten subsidy, support with retirement provision, Leipzig job ticket or sports offers for your balance – from home gym to fitness studio for mind and body.
