    Job Description

    Keep the flow moving

    Every shipment tells a story. One arrives at the dock; you steer the unloading effort, match products to paperwork, and confirm quality. Minutes later, an urgent order prints—your precision in picking and packing makes the difference between on-time delivery and delay. Throughout it all, safety and organization guide every move.

    • Receive and unload inbound freight, checking accuracy against documentation
    • Inspect goods to uphold quality standards
    • Stock items methodically in designated locations for quick retrieval
    • Pick orders with accuracy and pack for efficient, damage-free shipment
    • Operate forklifts and related warehouse equipment with strict safety focus
    • Keep the facility orderly, clean, and free of obstructions
    • Participate in cycle counts and scheduled inventory audits

    What sets you up for success

    • Preferred background in warehouse or distribution operations
    • Understanding of OSHA safety requirements and best practices
    • Proficiency with forklifts and standard material-handling tools
    • Experience in order picking, packaging, and stocking workflows
    • Sharp attention to detail to maintain accurate inventory records
    • Physical capability to lift heavy items and handle active, hands-on tasks

    How you work

    You’re comfortable in a fast-paced setting, able to switch between tasks and still meet deadlines. You communicate clearly, collaborate well, and bring a reliable work ethic. Expect extended standing and exposure to different environmental conditions as part of the job.
