Job Description

Day-in-the-life: Keep Our Material Flow Moving in Vance, AL 35490

Picture this: your shift starts with a quick walk-around of your forklifts, confirming everything is in top shape. You hop on a reach truck to pull pallets from high bays, then switch to a counterbalance (sit-down) to stage outbound loads. Throughout the day, you partner with teammates, support cycle counts, and keep your aisle spotless—because safety and accuracy are how the whole operation wins.

• Load and unload trailers and containers with care and precision, maintaining accuracy and pace.
• Complete pre-use inspections and promptly report maintenance or safety concerns.
• Keep work areas clean, orderly, and free of hazards to protect people and product.
• Coordinate with supervisors and peers to hit daily throughput and production targets.
• Follow safety procedures and company policies every time you operate equipment.
• Support inventory activities, including cycle counts and stock checks, as needed.

What You Bring

• Valid forklift operator certification for both Reach Truck and Sit-Down equipment.
• Hands-on forklift experience in a warehouse or industrial setting (preferred).
• Sharp attention to detail and a safety-first mindset.
• Ability to work independently and contribute as a dependable team player.
