Job Description

We’re looking for a dependable and safety-minded Warehouse Specialist to join our team and help keep daily operations running smoothly.

  • Load, unload, and transport goods to designated areas within the warehouse.
  • Follow proper stacking and storage procedures to maximize space and prevent damage.
  • Assist with packing, unpacking, labeling, and staging of materials.
  • Conduct pre-shift equipment inspections and report any maintenance concerns.
  • Maintain accurate inventory movement records using warehouse management systems.
  • Keep the work area clean, organized, and free of safety hazards.
  • Support cycle counts and inventory audits.
  • Participate in training and safety programs.
  • Communicate clearly and professionally with team members and supervisors.
  • Perform light data entry tasks and basic email communication as needed.

Qualifications

  • Must be able to pass a pre-employment drug screen and background check.
  • High school diploma or GED required.
  • Valid forklift certification preferred.
  • At least 2 years of experience in a warehouse environment.
  • Basic computer and data entry skills.
  • Ability to lift up to 50 lbs. and perform tasks in a fast-paced environment.
  • Strong attention to detail and commitment to safety.
  • Excellent teamwork, communication, and organizational skills.

Benefits And Compensation (after 90 Days)

  • $17.00 per hour.
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, vision, and ancillary benefits.
  • Paid Time Off (PTO) and paid holidays.
  • Opportunities for growth and advancement within BWT.

Schedule

  • Full-Time.
  • Monday to Friday.
  • 8:00 AM – 4:30 PM.
