Job Vacancy Services places international logistics workers into Polish distribution hubs and handles the documentation, work permit, and relocation so your move is structured from the start.
Logistics roles JVCS recruits for in Poland
- Warehouse and distribution operatives
- Pickers and packers
- Forklift and reach-truck operators
- Goods-in and dispatch staff
Day to day, that means picking, packing, and moving goods in distribution hubs, working within scanning and warehouse-management systems, and meeting throughput and accuracy targets on shifts.
Work permit and visa timeline for Poland
Most non-EU candidates enter on a single temporary residence and work permit, or a type A work permit paired with a national (type D) work visa.
Polish is the workplace language in many roles, but a growing number of employers operate in English or provide on-site language support. JVCS confirms the language level needed before you commit.
Poland follows the EU single-permit framework: the competent authority is required to take a decision on a complete application within 90 days (Directive 2011/98/EU). In practice, voivodeship office processing can run longer at busy periods, so JVCS prepares documentation in parallel with sourcing to protect the start date. Rather than promise a single figure, JVCS gives you a realistic, role-specific timeline once the route and employer are confirmed.
JVCS placements in logistics across Poland
JVCS has placed 6,000+ workers across 4 European offices, owning the full chain from sourcing to post-arrival support.
Logistics placements into Poland's distribution hubs are a regular part of our work, and each one follows a structured route from documentation and permit through to arrival, so your move stays predictable from day one.
Poland reports persistent labour shortages in construction, transport and logistics, and healthcare (European Labour Authority, 2024), which is what drives structured international hiring into the country.
Document checklist for logistics jobs in Poland
- Forklift, reach-truck, or driving licences relevant to the role
- References from previous warehouse or logistics work
- Evidence of basic English for safety and operational instructions
- Valid passport and a criminal-record certificate where required
- A medical fitness certificate for physical, shift-based work
- Availability for the shift patterns the site runs
Interview preparation for logistics roles
- Be ready to confirm you can work shifts, including evenings and weekends.
- Expect questions on physical fitness and standing or moving for full shifts.
- Mention any experience with warehouse management systems or barcode scanning.
- Have any forklift or driving licences ready for verification.
How JVCS handles your documentation
Documentation is where cross-border moves most often slip, so JVCS owns it end to end. We review your documents early, flag any gaps before they cause delays, and run the permit paperwork in parallel with sourcing rather than in sequence.
From there we coordinate the work permit, travel, and arrival, and stay available through your first weeks on the ground — a single point of accountability for the whole process.
Pay for logistics jobs in Poland
Logistics pay in Poland tracks the role and shift: licensed forklift and reach-truck operators and night or weekend shifts typically earn premiums above entry-level picking and packing.
As a legal floor, Poland's statutory minimum wage was about €977 per month gross in January 2024 (Eurostat). Actual pay depends on the role, employer, and your experience, and JVCS confirms the package for any specific placement before you commit.
