Job Description

Keep Things Moving Behind the Scenes

We're seeking a reliable, hands-on professional to support a busy Print, Mail & Distribution operation during a temporary leave. Engagement is expected to span approximately 6-8 weeks and offers flexibility within a part-time day shift schedule. This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys staying active, working as part of a collaborative team, and taking pride in helping daily operations run smoothly.

If you're dependable, enjoy physical work, and like a variety of tasks throughout the day, we'd love to connect.

What You'll Do as a Mail & Distribution Assistant:

  • Pick and prepare orders for shipment
  • Package materials and ensure orders are accurate
  • Stuff envelopes and prepare mailings
  • Assemble boxes and shipping materials
  • Roll posters and organize promotional materials
  • Replenish inventory and supplies used in daily operations
  • Assist with shipping, distribution, and warehouse support tasks
  • Help teammates as priorities shift throughout the day

Schedule Options

The team is open to several scheduling arrangements, including:

  • 3 full days per week (example: Monday, Wednesday, Friday)
  • Flexible 3-day schedule
  • 4-5 days per week with reduced daily hours

Day shift hours fall within a 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM operating schedule.

What You'll Enjoy About This Role

This is a great fit for someone who prefers staying active and productive throughout the day rather than sitting behind a desk. You'll spend your time moving throughout the facility, preparing orders, organizing materials, and helping keep operations running smoothly. The work is hands-on, team-oriented, and offers variety from day to day. Short-term assignment with immediate impact + great opportunity for individuals seeking part-time work or supplemental income

Successful team members are dependable, enjoy working independently, don't mind physical activity, and take pride in getting things done accurately and on time.

Interested? Apply today and let's discuss whether this opportunity aligns with your experience and schedule. Reach out team directly by calling us at View phone number on us.fitly.work.

What We're Looking For

  • Previous shipping/receiving, mailroom, distribution or retail experience is helpful
  • Strong work ethic and positive attitude
  • Reliable attendance and punctuality
  • Comfortable working independently and as part of a team
  • Ability to stay organized and pay attention to detail
  • Willingness to jump in and assist wherever needed
