• Help load and unload trailers—yes, you’ll stay active
• Build and organize pallets of finished goods

• Share your knowledge by training and mentoring teammates
• Jump in wherever needed—because teamwork makes everything better

What You Bring to the Table

• High school diploma or equivalent
• 2–3 years of shipping/receiving experience (a plus, not a must-have superstar origin story)
• Comfort operating equipment like forklifts and pallet jacks
• Strong attention to detail (you notice the little things others miss)
• Basic math and solid problem-solving skills
• Clear communication—both written and verbal
• Comfort using computers and inventory systems
• The ability to juggle tasks and work independently without missing a beat
