What We're Looking For
We're looking for someone who is reliable, organized, and pays attention to the details. Shipping and receiving plays an important role in making sure the right product gets to the right place at the right time, so accuracy and communication are essential.
Candidates should have a high school diploma or GED and preferably 2+ years of experience in shipping, receiving, warehousing, or a similar role. Basic computer skills are needed for maintaining records and tracking shipments. You should also be comfortable communicating with coworkers, suppliers, and customers when needed.
