Yard Logistics Lead & Telehandler Specialist

Lead the Yard. Move the Work. Keep Inventory Flowing.

Step into a full-time, long-term role with real growth opportunity. You’ll anchor first shift operations (7:00 a.m. – 3:30 p.m.) with overtime as needed, guiding materials through the yard and warehouse while operating heavy equipment with confidence.

A Day in the Role

You’ll start by reviewing open picks and cycle counts, then head outside to stage utility materials, sort returns, and document any damages. You’ll operate heavy JLG equipment (including all-terrain forklifts/telehandlers) to move loads up to 12,000 lbs, load and unload trucks and trailers, and drive company flatbeds or pickup trucks to local yards—no overnight travel. Throughout the day, you’ll coordinate with teammates and vendors, act as a spotter when needed, and keep the storeroom organized and accurate.
