Job Description

Every Fargo Woodworks piece is one of a kind, built for executive offices, boardrooms and high-end hospitality spaces, and often headed across the country. This role is the last line of defense before the customer, the last set of hands on the product.

We're looking for someone careful and organized who takes pride in making sure a finished piece arrives exactly as it left the shop. We train the right person, so attention to detail and reliability matter most.

What you'll do

  • Assemble and inspect each piece first. Nothing gets wrapped until it passes
  • Clean every surface so no dust or debris gets trapped under the wrap
  • Photo-document every shipment to the required checklist (it protects us on claims)
  • Wrap and protect all parts, with extra foam on corners, edges and finished surfaces
  • Build crates strong enough to survive real handling, packed tight so nothing moves
  • Label and stage for shipment (fragile, do not stack, no-stack cones)
  • Use downtime as prep time: cut foam, build crate parts, keep packing materials stocked

What we're looking for

  • Careful hands. You understand these are high-value, one-of-a-kind goods
  • Reliable and on time, day in and day out
  • Able to lift 50+ lbs and stay on your feet for a full shift
  • Basic phone and computer comfort for photos, labels and records
  • Team player who keeps a tidy, orderly workspace

A plus, not required

  • Forklift certified, or willing to be trained
  • Warehouse, shipping or crating experience

Schedule: Monday through Friday, 7:30am to 4:00pm, plus occasional weekend overtime when needed.

Pay: $20/hour to start.

Benefits: Health insurance and paid time off.

Our standard: Every shipment arrives without damage. No shortcuts, no "good enough."

You should be proficient in:

  • Shipping/Receiving
  • Warehouse Experience
  • Tape Measure Reading
  • Heavy Material Handling
  • Packaging Experience
  • Furniture Assembly
  • Visual Inspection
  • Crating

Machines & technologies you'll use:

  • Pallet Jack
  • Forklift
  • Power Drill/Impact Driver
  • Saw (Circular/Miter)
  • Stretch Wrap
  • Label Printer
