Job Description

Winsupply of Fort Worth is seeking a highly motivated and reliable Warehouse Associate / Driver to be a core part of our operations team. This role primarily focuses on warehouse duties —receiving, stocking, order fulfillment, and organization—with the safe and efficient operation of a box truck for local deliveries and pickups as a critical secondary function. The ideal candidate has a strong work ethic, attention to detail, and a commitment to maintaining a safe, organized warehouse while possessing an excellent driving record.

Responsibilities:

Warehouse Operations (Approximately 70-90% of time, varies by business need):

• Order Fulfillment: Accurately pick, pack, label, and stage orders efficiently according to customer specifications or shipping manifests.
• Receiving & Stocking: Unload incoming shipments, verify contents against purchase orders, inspect for damage, and accurately count, sort, and tag materials.
• Organization: Stock shelves, racks, and designated storage areas in an organized manner.
• Custom Cutting: Cut duct board to specified dimensions for orders.
• Safety & Maintenance: Operate warehouse equipment safely, such as forklifts, pallet jacks, and hand trucks (certification may be required or provided). Maintain a clean, safe, and organized warehouse environment.
• Inventory Support: Assist with inventory counts and reconciliation as needed.
• Collaboration: Follow all safety procedures and work collaboratively with the team to ensure smooth operations.

Driving Support (Approximately 10-30% of time, varies by business need):

• Local Deliveries: Operate 16ft and 26ft box trucks safely and efficiently for local deliveries and pickups within the Fort Worth and surrounding North Texas areas.
• Loading/Unloading: Load and unload the truck using appropriate equipment (hand trucks, pallet jacks, lift gates) while following all safety protocols.
• Documentation: Verify accuracy of deliveries/pickups, obtain necessary signatures, and complete delivery paperwork accurately.
• Truck Maintenance: Perform required pre-trip and post-trip inspections and report any maintenance issues promptly.
• Compliance: Adhere to all traffic laws, DOT regulations, and company safety policies.
• Communication: Communicate effectively with dispatch, customers, and warehouse personnel regarding delivery schedules or issues.

Qualifications:

• High school diploma or equivalent.
• Proven experience in a warehouse or distribution environment is required.
• Ability to lift, push, pull, and carry up to 75 pounds regularly.
• Valid Texas Driver's License with a clean driving record (no major violations).
• Some experience operating a box truck or similar commercial vehicle is preferred (but not the primary requirement).
• Forklift certification preferred but not required (training and certification may be provided).
• Class C Driver's License preferred. (A 26ft box truck typically does not require a CDL as long as its Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) is under 26,001 lbs, which is common for these sizes. If any truck exceeds this, a CDL will be required.)
• Strong attention to detail, accuracy, and organizational skills.
• Ability to read, interpret, and complete delivery manifests, invoices, and other documents.
• Ability to pass a pre-employment drug screen and background check.

Working Conditions:

• Work is performed primarily in the indoor warehouse environment, with some exposure to outdoor weather conditions during the driving component.
• Regular exposure to dust, noise, and varying temperatures in the warehouse.
• Frequent standing, walking, bending, lifting, and carrying.
• Driving for occasional extended periods, potentially in various traffic conditions.
• May require occasional overtime, weekend, or holiday work based on business needs.
