About The Role
We're hiring a Warehouse Team Lead for our McMinnville location — someone who can own inventory accuracy from the moment a PO arrives to the moment a part leaves the shelf. This isn't a title on paper: what you do here directly affects whether the right part is on the shelf when a customer or tech needs it.

You'll lead a small, hands-on team (3–4 people), and you'll be the person who makes sure purchase orders are received, checked, and posted correctly the first time — and who can teach the rest of the team to do the same.

What You'll Do

• Receive incoming purchase orders, verify shipments against POs, and post receipts accurately into our inventory system
• Investigate and resolve discrepancies (wrong part, wrong count, wrong PO) before they become inventory or customer problems
• Lead day-to-day warehouse operations for a small team — set the standard for accuracy, attendance, and pace
• Train team members on receiving and inventory-posting procedures
• Flag recurring errors or process gaps to management before they compound

What You Need

• 3+ years of hands-on experience in a parts, automotive, or industrial warehouse  
• Direct, hands-on experience receiving purchase orders and posting/reconciling them in an inventory or ERP system (NAPA TAMS/PRO, Epicor, or similar systems all count — tell us which ones you've used)
• Comfortable using a computer system daily for real work — not just familiar with a phone or tablet
• Able to commit to reliable, in-person, on-time attendance — this role sets the tone for the whole warehouse
• Prior experience where inventory mistakes had real consequences (a shop couldn't get a part, a customer order was wrong, etc.) strongly preferred — we want someone who already understands why accuracy matters, not someone learning it for the first time on our shelf

Nice To Have

• Prior experience training or directing coworkers, even informally
• Automotive parts knowledge (NAPA or similar aftermarket experience)
