Forklift Operator

Role Overview We are seeking a reliable, safety-conscious Forklift Operator to join a close-knit warehouse team. This is not a "high-volume/faceless" environment; you will play a critical role in the daily operations of a small facility. The ideal candidate is someone who can jump off the lift to help with inventory and communicate effectively with our drivers and team members.

Key Responsibilities

• Loading & Unloading: Safely operate a sit-down or stand-up forklift to move palletized freight from trailers to the warehouse floor.

• Inbound/Outbound Logistics: Verify packing slips against physical inventory to ensure accuracy during receiving.

• Inventory Management: Assist with cycle counting, organizing shelves, and maintaining a clean, "audit-ready" warehouse.

• Direct Coordination: Work directly with truck drivers to coordinate dock times and load sequences.

• General Support: Be willing to assist with manual picking, packing, or cleaning as needed in a small-team setting.

Qualifications & Skills

• Certification: Valid Forklift Certification (Sit-down, Stand-up, or Reach truck).

• Experience: 1–2 years of experience in a warehouse or logistics environment.

• (Preferred): Ability to speak both English and Spanish is highly preferred to communicate with our diverse driver base and team members.

• Attention to Detail: ability to spot discrepancies in shipping labels and inventory counts.

• Reliability: Since this is a small team, consistent attendance is vital to our success.

Why Work Here?

• Small, friendly team environment.

• Steady, predictable schedule.

• Opportunity for growth within the company.
