Logistics employees expect to undertake a variety of tasks related to purchasing, ordering and shipping. Inbound is about classifying the clothes and accessories that have arrived in our chaotic storage system after successful quality control measures, and recording the position of the articles with the scanner - so our system knows exactly where we can find each item. When outbound, the items ordered are then collected from the storage system, assigned to the orders and sent to our customers.
What we offer you:
- Future-proof workplace
- Growing company
- Full-time and part-time working time models
- Employer-funded pension
- Training opportunities
This is how a day as a logistics employee specialising in books & media at our Stobno site looks:
Every logistics employee's day begins on the team leader island, which reveals the exact area for which you have been assigned in the work shift. This keeps the work varied and helps assign workers where they are actually needed.
Goods receiving
Incoming parcels are opened carefully, unnecessary packaging material is removed and the attached delivery note is scanned. So every customer can electronically track when their sent items have arrived.
Quality control
Each item is carefully checked to ensure the quality by our trained employees, scanned and saved in the system. The quality of each article is assessed and classified using a corresponding scale so that customers can see the condition of the article upon resale.
Problem reviewing
Our most experienced and most knowledgeable employees carry out an additional quality control measures on articles whose checking was problematic during the first stage of assessment.

Brand check
Here, the individual pieces are checked for brand authenticity so that no counterfeits are offered for sale.
Rejection of items
If the items sent in do not meet our quality standards or do not pass the brand check, they are returned to the customer or we will dispose of them at the customer's request.
Categorisation
After the successful quality control checks, the items of clothing, shoes and accessories are categorised in the system according to colour, size and gender.
Pictures
This is where pictures of the quality-checked clothing, shoes and accessories are taken for ubup, our online shop for second-hand fashion. Before the pictures are taken, the articles are sorted by category and size and displayed accordingly on mannequins, clothes hangers or on specially designed tables.
Packaging
After the photos have been taken, the items are packaged and sent to our logistics centre for second-hand fashion in Neuenhagen near Berlin, where they are stored before they go to their new owners.
Returns
In the case of returns, the items are subjected to extensive quality control measures and offered for sale again.
What can I bring to the role of logistics employee?
As a logistics employee, physical fitness and resilience are important aspects. Because the majority of the working day is on your feet and you can cover 15 to 20 km in one shift. Careful handling of the goods is also necessary, as they are already used articles and our customers should receive them in the condition described. In addition, you have to have PC skills and flexibility with regard to changing tasks at short notice.
