- Coordinate the onboarding and initial training of new associates, ensuring they understand facility procedures, safety requirements, and performance expectations
- Communicate clearly and professionally with management regarding staffing needs, equipment issues, and operational bottlenecks
- Lead by example on the floor — stepping in to assist with physical tasks during peak periods and demonstrating the work ethic expected of the team
- Support peak season planning and execution, including managing overtime scheduling and adjusting workflow as volume demands shift
- Identify high-performing associates and communicate development opportunities to facility management
- Minimum of 2 years of experience in a warehouse, distribution, or fulfillment environment
- At least 1 year of demonstrated leadership, lead, or supervisory experience in a warehouse or manufacturing setting
- Strong working knowledge of inbound and outbound warehouse operations and standard distribution processes

- Comfort with basic computer systems and warehouse management software for tracking and reporting
- Proven ability to hold a team accountable while maintaining a positive, productive work environment
- Ability to lift up to 50 pounds and stand for extended periods in a warehouse environment
- Must be authorized to work in the United States
