• Promote and enforce all OSHA and company safety policies.
• Oversee equipment operation and maintenance (forklifts, pallet jacks, cherry pickers, etc.).
• Conduct forklift safety training for warehouse personnel.
• Maintain a clean, organized, and hazard-free work environment.

Continuous Improvement & Process Optimization

• Identify cost-saving opportunities and drive efficiency initiatives.
• Implement Lean and 5S practices to improve accuracy, reduce waste, and enhance throughput.
• Develop and refine warehouse procedures to standardize best practices.
• Support KPI development and reporting for inventory accuracy, shipping timeliness, and productivity.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Partner with production and logistics teams to ensure material availability and schedule alignment.
• Communicate shipping updates, ETAs, and inventory status to internal stakeholders.
• Work closely with leadership to align warehouse operations with company goals.

What You’ll Bring

• 3+ years of warehouse or logistics management experience.
• Strong leadership and team-building skills; proven ability to coach and motivate.
• Proficiency with inventory management systems, ERP/MRP software, and Microsoft Office.
• Solid understanding of warehouse processes, from receiving to fulfillment.
