Warehouse Manager

Clarendon Specialty Fasteners | Irvine, CA | Full-Time About Us Clarendon Specialty Fasteners is a global distributor of aerospace standard and commercial fasteners, hardware, and associated products, with operations across the UK, Europe, Mexico, and the United States. We serve the Aerospace, Defense, Space, High-Performance Automotive, and Industrial sectors — backed by a highly skilled team and a strong, decentralized management culture that gives our people real ownership over how they run their operation. The Role - Warehouse Manager We're looking for a hands on Warehouse Manager to lead the daily operations of our Irvine stocking warehouse — inventory, picking, receiving, and dispatch of aerospace fasteners and hardware. This isn't a desk job: you'll be out on the floor, coaching your team, solving problems in real time, and driving the kind of continuous improvement that keeps a fast-moving distribution operation running at aerospace-grade quality standards. If you've managed a warehouse team before, know your way around a 6S/5S program, and can talk through a real example of getting into the weeds to fix a process — we want to hear from you. What You'll Do Plan, coordinate, and oversee all warehouse operations — receiving, inventory, picking, and dispatch of aerospace hardware Build and implement procedures that improve efficiency, productivity, and cost Supervise, coach, and develop your warehouse team to hit on-time delivery and quality targets Lead continuous improvement initiatives across warehouse and operations Collaborate with logistics, procurement, and sales to keep material flowing and delivery schedules on track Own health, safety, and environmental compliance — including 6S and FOD (Foreign Object Debris) programs Maintain quality control in line with ISO/AS9120 standards, working closely with our Quality team Track and report warehouse KPIs, cycle counts, and performance metrics to leadership Manage schedules, timecards, and day-to-day staff administration What You Bring 5+ years of experience as a Warehouse Manager, Operations Manager, or similar role within a stocking distribution company Strong working knowledge of warehouse operations, inventory management, logistics, and supply chain processes — ideally in aerospace fasteners and hardware Experience with quality systems such as AS9120, AS9100, or ISO 9001 Proven people leadership — you've hired, trained, and managed a warehouse team, not just supervised a process Proficiency with warehouse management software (WMS) and MS Office Strong organizational, communication, and problem-solving skills Comfortable in a fast-paced, hands-on environment — this role lives on the warehouse floor, not just in reports Nice to have: Bachelor's degree in Supply Chain Management, Logistics, or Business Administration (preferred but not required). Compensation & Benefits Competitive base salary ( $85,000–$120,000 , depending on experience) plus performance bonus. [+ health/dental/vision, 401(k), PTO, etc.] Why Clarendon Work at the center of a growing, acquisition-backed aerospace distributor with a real seat at the table — decisions here aren't buried five layers up Hands-on leadership culture: we value people who can show us, not just tell us A role where your continuous-improvement ideas actually get implemented Location: Irvine, CA (on-site) Reports to: Head of Operations
