In addition, you will collaborate with management, engineers, suppliers, partners and customer service representatives on various projects & initiatives.
• Better safe than sorry. Our distribution center may not have forklifts, but accidents can happen anywhere. You will be a safety advocate, ensuring that thredUP has a safe, secure, clean and fair work environment, every day.

What We're Looking For:

• Give me five. You have 5+ years of experience in retail, warehousing, or other team-oriented production environments. More specifically, you have at least 3-5 years of experience as a Production Lead, Supervisor, or leading/coaching teams of 20+ associates.
• Get on your feet. You need to be able to stand or walk for an entire shift (10-12 hours per day) as well as bend down, reach overhead, lift/carry up to 30lbs and push/pull wheeled clothing racks weighing up to 150lbs.
