Warehouse Team Lead (McHenry, Illinois)

Lead a Team at a Company You Actually Own Life's Abundance is a 100% employee‑owned health and wellness company. That's not a slogan — it means every employee, including you, earns ownership shares in the company at no cost to you, on top of your paycheck. When the company does well, employee‑owners share in that success. We've been in business for over 25 years, we're certified by the Tugboat Institute as an Evergreen company (built to last, people‑first, no outside investors calling the shots), and we take our culture seriously. We're looking for a Team Lead who will be a driver of it. What You'll Do You'll be the caretaker of our inventory from the moment it arrives until it ships out the door — and a hands‑on leader who keeps the warehouse running smoothly day to day. Lead the floor. When the Assistant Manager is away from the line, you run day‑to‑day operations and keep orders moving. Own receiving and inventory. Lead receiving procedures and cycle counts; verify, inspect, scan, and label incoming product so our inventory stays accurate. Fulfill orders with pride. Pick, pack, and stage orders accurately; build and prep boxes; organize the daily workflow from pick files. Keep people safe. Help plan and lead weekly safety meetings, follow and model all SOPs and lockout/tagout procedures, and speak up immediately about hazards. Handle the details. Help manage the location shipper email inbox, process returns, and keep product rotated (FIFO) and quality‑checked. We'll train you on our equipment — electric pallet jacks, forklifts (PIT certification provided), case formers, vacuum lifters, and our fulfillment systems. Who Thrives Here Brings steady, positive energy — every day. Not fake cheerfulness; just consistency. The kind of person people are glad to see in the morning. Communicates openly and professionally. You share your ideas and perspectives with leadership, and you champion the team's direction once decisions are made. Builds harmony. You bring people together, foster collaboration, and create an environment where everyone can do their best work. Acts without being told. You see what needs doing and do it. Sweats the details. Accurate picks, clean receiving records, honest cycle counts.
