Where you'll work:

Culligan Warehouse Reps spend their time working in a warehouse – this means you'll need to be comfortable working in various environments, including indoor and outdoor spaces where weather conditions may vary. The warehouse may be noisy due to equipment, machinery, and movement of items, and may have varying temperatures that fluctuate depending on the weather.

While our Warehouse Reps aren't typically working face to face with our customers, we expect them to understand the importance and impact of warehouse operations on customer satisfaction, and handle situations with composure and professionalism. Attention to detail is key in this role as you'll be required to accurately manage inventory and order fulfillment, while also ensuring compliance with all standards and regulations.
