UK Warehouse Manager

Job Title: UK Warehouse Manager

Reports To: Operations Director

Location: Unit 6 Indurent Park (GL10 3EX), Gloucester, UK

WHO WE ARE:

REP designs world-class, innovative gym equipment that is sold around the world, and we are now expanding into the United Kingdom. REP was established in 2012 by two brothers who shared a deep passion for fitness. From our humble beginnings of selling bumper plates out of a small garage, REP has experienced remarkable growth, now occupying over 300,000+ square feet of office and distribution space in the USA and internationally and is now available in over 40 countries. With a dedicated team of over 180+ fitness enthusiasts, our mission is to "Improve Lives by Sharing our Passion for Strength." Our commitment to innovation, customer service, and value sets us apart.

We believe in building a culture centered around fitness, so we specialize in outfitting home gyms, commercial gyms, and strength and conditioning facilities. Our dedication to excellence has been recognized many times - as one of Inc. 5000's fastest-growing private companies; as Newsweek's Reader's Choice Best Exercise Equipment Brand; and as the most popular brand in the home gym market (with cost in mind) by Garage Gym Experiment. From Men's Health to Self.com, Garage Gym Reviews, and Men's Journal, REP's products are consistently named the best in their class. We also boast impressive partnerships, such as providing F45 functional racks worldwide. Our team works out together, and we regularly invite fitness superstars to join us. We organize fun challenges to test our limits - and the limits of our equipment.

At REP, we continue to grow and bring new opportunities for those who want to be part of a winning team. We firmly believe that being surrounded by like-minded individuals fuels creative energy and fosters a fun and collaborative work environment.
