Position Summary

Our Henderson warehouse receives, stores and ships finished goods to our third-party logistics network and international markets.

You'll work the dock and the forklift, post transactions in Microsoft Dynamics NAV, and keep the facility ready for FDA, fire and health inspections at all times.
