Outbound- Picking Supervisor

Job Description

Job Description

Duties and Responsibilities  

• Embody the Cavender's Culture.  Champion the Mission, Vision, Values, and Brand in every decision and interaction. 

• Run the picking floor.  Supervise daily wave release, order pulling, and replenishment operations, keeping the team moving with purpose, accuracy, and urgency. 

• Be the leader your associates need.  Show up for your team every shift by training, coaching, and giving the kind of direct, honest feedback that helps people grow. 

• Keep product moving accurately.  Own the timely and accurate picking of orders so packing and shipping never have to wait or wonder. 

• Hold the standard.  Make sure picking SOPs, wave sequencing, and powered equipment (PIT) safety standards are followed on every shift, by every associate. 

• Organize the shift to win.  Manage scheduling, workload distribution, and shift coverage against the day's wave and ship schedule so the team is always positioned to meet demand. 

• Trust but verify.  Validate pick accuracy against orders and quantities, and catch discrepancies after they become packing or customer problems. 

• Solve it on the floor.  When picking errors, short picks, or system discrepancies surface, own the resolution, investigate, correct, and follow through. 

• Own your space.  Keep pick modules, pick carts, and replenishment locations organized, clean, and ready to run. 

• Keep score.  Track productivity and performance metrics daily and give associates the real-time feedback they need to stay on pace and improve. 

• Connect picking to the broader operation.  Stay aligned with put away and packing/shipping teams so product flows without gaps or delays. 

• Reinforce a culture of safety and compliance.  Support company policies and safety standards, especially powered equipment safety, with the same energy you bring to productivity — because protecting the team is part of the job. 

• Report with clarity.  Bring your manager a clear, honest picture of daily picking progress, issues, and performance to help leadership make good decisions fast. 

Qualifications and Requirements
