What your job will involve?

The job of an order picker involves picking orders placed online. Using a hand-held scanner, you pick orders (for products such as yoghurt, cheese, cold meat, fruit, vegetables, and beverages) in a logical and orderly manner in a cold (+2/+4°C) or warm (+15°C) room. You check products for quality and best-before dates.

The products picked by you are collected by the customer at a pick-up point or delivered directly to their home. You move around the facility on foot.

Moving to the Netherlands is a new stage of life for every person. Despite the different reasons for moving, everyone is united by the fear of the unknown. Carrière is there to help before you leave and on the spot. To give you an idea of what it looks like in practice, we asked our employees why they decided to move to the Netherlands and what is most important to them during their stay. Find out their answers.

Alexandra Elena, order picker at Albert Heijn

The position of order picker is one of the most popular in the Netherlands. The job involves collecting orders placed online using a handheld handheld scanner.

Due to the large size of the warehouses, it may appear that the workers do not communicate with each other at all during their shifts, which is not the case at all.

Usually, in this type of job, each person is very useful and the teams are in sync. As a result, the working atmosphere is very pleasant, something emphasized, among others, by our employees.

Albert Heijn is one of the leading supermarket chains in the Netherlands, existing since 1887. It currently has more than 900 shops.
