Lead Daily Warehouse Excellence in Canal Fulton, OH

Picture your day: you arrive at our Canal Fulton facility and review inbound schedules, confirm staffing, and scan key performance dashboards. You walk the floor, coach a new team lead on safe loading techniques, and fine-tune a pick-path that will shave minutes off every order. By mid-morning, you’ve aligned receiving, inventory, and shipping on a high-priority customer commitment. Before day’s end, you’ve closed the cycle count variance and published a short action plan to boost accuracy tomorrow. That’s a typical day for our Warehouse Operations & Inventory Control Manager.

What You’ll Own

  • Full oversight of warehouse functions: receiving, put-away, inventory control, picking, packing, and outbound shipping.
  • Hiring, training, scheduling, and performance coaching for a diverse team; reinforcing safety-first behaviors.
  • Designing and refining standard operating procedures to improve throughput, accuracy, and cost per order.
  • Inventory stewardship, including routine audits, cycle counts, reconciliation, and root-cause correction.
  • Cross-functional coordination with Customer Service, Procurement, and Transportation to meet fulfillment SLAs and delight customers.
  • Maintaining a clean, organized, and compliant facility that meets EHS and OSHA standards.
  • Analyzing KPIs (fill rate, order accuracy, dock-to-stock, pick productivity) and recommending data-driven improvements.

Schedule

Day shift only—no weekends.

What You Bring

  • Proven success as a Warehouse Manager or similar operations leadership role.
  • Inspiring people leader with demonstrated supervisory experience and coaching/mentoring capability.
  • Hands-on warehouse background spanning distribution and fulfillment environments.
  • Comfort with warehouse management systems (WMS) and inventory software; data-savvy decision maker.
  • Deep knowledge of warehouse safety, workplace safety & EHS management best practices.
  • Clear communicator—confident in both written updates and on-the-floor direction.
  • High school diploma or equivalent required; an associate’s or bachelor’s degree in logistics, supply chain, or related field is a plus.
  • Forklift licensed/certified.
