Warehouse Logistics & Materials Operations Specialist

About the Role Picture your day starting on the dock: you greet an inbound LTL carrier, carefully open crates, and verify counts against work orders. You log variances, reject damaged items, and move accepted goods into designated bays using an electric forklift, pallet jack, or a two‑wheeler. A production scheduler pings you for on‑hand counts; you pull raw materials for tomorrow’s builds and update the ERP so the floor has what it needs, when it needs it. In the afternoon, you turn to outbound—packing per spec, printing labels through UPS WorldShip, FedEx Ship Manager, or UPS Ozlink, and double‑checking that every shipment meets quality and documentation standards before it leaves. What You’ll Do Receive, inspect, and count inbound materials; document shortages and reject damaged goods. Verify, document, and maintain records for all incoming and outgoing shipments.
