Temporary Warehouse Recruitment – Harwich International Port.

Location: Harwich International Port, Essex
Type of Recruitment: Temporary warehouse workers
Estimated Value: £2.4 million including VAT (over 5 years, possible extension to 7 years)

Harwich International Port Limited is seeking to engage suppliers to provide temporary workers to perform warehousing duties at its statutory examination facility. This contract, valued at approximately £2.4 million over five years, offers an opportunity for suppliers to work with a major port operator, supporting critical operations such as handball (unloading and reloading trailers and containers) and small forklift tasks. Being selected as a supplier provides access to consistent, high-value work in a regulated and essential service environment, with the potential for contract extension ensuring longer-term stability and partnership opportunities. Suppliers will benefit from working within a structured procurement process, including financial and participation assessments, ensuring a robust and professional working relationship.

The ideal supplier will have experience in providing temporary warehousing staff in high-volume, operational environments, with a strong focus on reliability, safety, and efficiency. Suppliers must be able to manage flexible staffing requirements, maintain workforce quality, and comply with health and safety regulations specific to port operations. Harwich International Port is looking for partners who can demonstrate financial stability, operational capability, and a proactive approach to workforce management, ensuring that all statutory examination operations are supported effectively. Suppliers capable of adapting to potential changes in government examination requirements and committed to high standards of service will be well-positioned to succeed.
