• We mean that last part. Warehouse Associates at Conklin have gone on to become Shipping Leads, Receiving Leads, Warehouse Managers, Inside Sales Representatives, Branch Managers, and Operations Managers. If you want a path, we have one. But it starts on the warehouse floor, and it starts with doing the basics exceptionally well.

Responsibilities

• Your day will move quickly, and no two days will look exactly the same. You’ll help keep our operation running smoothly from the time product comes through the door until it leaves on a truck.

• Keep the warehouse clean, organized, and safe
• Complete all required paperwork accurately and on time

Requirements

• The people who thrive here tend to share a few things in common. They are detail-oriented and take quality seriously. They can work independently without needing to be watched, but they also understand what it means to be a dependable teammate. They move with a sense of urgency, take ownership of their work, and do not leave things half-finished.
• Have hands-on forklift experience and can operate one confidently and safely every day
• Have at least two years of warehouse experience in a fast-paced environment
• Pay close attention to detail, particularly when it comes to shipping and receiving accuracy
• Have inventory-control experience, although this is preferred rather than required
