Shipping and Donation Supervisor

Job Type


Full-time

Description

Goodwill Industries of Northeast Indiana, Inc. is looking for a Shipping & Donations Supervisor for our E-Commerce Department in Fort Wayne, IN.!

If you're looking for the run of the mill job, this isn't it. If you want to serve your community while building your career with an eco-friendly organization, then this might be the opportunity for you!

Goodwill's mission is to Empower and prepare people for independence through training, personal growth and work. Goodwill stores support this mission by collecting and selling goods donated by the community.


As a Shipping & Donations Supervisor your job is very important to the success of our organization! In today's environment many people shop from home and look forward to their purchases being delivered. You get to ensure that the customer is receiving what they purchase and it arrives in the condition that they expect. When the community wants to donate clothing and other household items, we need to be sure that the items are brought into the building and processed properly.

This is a "hands on" supervisory position, so you can expect to participate and supervise in all aspects of the job. This position requires attention to detail, and the ability to properly package items using the appropriate materials and techniques. This person also needs to be able to weigh, measure and complete paperwork along with using computerized shipping software. The ability to lift, push and pull heavy objects is also required.

Goodwill offers competitive wages and we pay bi-weekly. We offer great full-time benefits including medical, dental and vision; a 401K plan; life insurance and Employee Assistance Program (EAP); holiday pay; paid time off (PTO), and in store discounts. We also offer set rotating schedules, and ShopGoodwill closes at 6PM, so there is no working the "late shift"!

If this sounds like the opportunity for you, apply today!
