Full job description

  • Provide supervisory coverage across warehouse functions when managers or supervisors are off, stretched, or focused on higher-priority needs.
  • Support day, afternoon, and night operations, including receiving, returns, putaway, inventory follow-up, QC, staging, loading, and shift handoff.
  • Help direct hourly workflow, communicate expectations, monitor floor conditions, and escalate service, safety, inventory, or quality risks early.
  • Assist with workload balancing, labor coverage, equipment allocation, facility readiness, vendor follow-up, and operational projects.
  • Use warehouse systems, Excel, reports, and dashboards to support follow-up on exceptions, inventory issues, breakage, shorts, returns, and process failures.
  • Reinforce SOPs, safety rules, PPE, PIT/dock safety, housekeeping, product rotation, code-date discipline, and company work-rule expectations.
  • 2+ years of warehouse, logistics, inventory, distribution, delivery, or operations leadership experience preferred.
  • Willingness to work days, afternoons, nights, weekends, holidays, and peak-season schedules as business needs require.
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to lead hourly teams in a fast-paced, physically active warehouse environment.
  • High attention to detail, follow-through, urgency, and ability to manage multiple priorities without losing control of the floor.
  • Comfort using Excel and warehouse systems such as VIP, EasyOps, LBI, iDIG/DataViewer, voice-pick tools, OpenDock, or similar systems preferred.
  • Experience with beverage distribution, receiving, inventory control, returns, QC, loading, public warehouse, or PIT-heavy operations is a plus.
  • Managers and supervisors can rely on you to step in, stabilize the operation, and keep work moving.
  • Shift handoffs are cleaner, exceptions are documented, and problems are surfaced before they become service failures.
  • Hourly employees receive clear direction, consistent follow-up, and practical support across multiple areas of the operation.
  • You demonstrate the judgment, flexibility, accountability, and leadership maturity needed for advancement.

We run lean, move fast, and set high standards. This role is ideal for someone who wants broad operational exposure, real responsibility, and a path toward advancement. If you are dependable, flexible, accountable, and ready to grow, this position offers the opportunity to learn the full operation and build a strong leadership career.
