DISCOUNT PIPE & STEEL
Warehouse & Inventory Associate Pickton, TX 75471 (East Texas) Full-time
- In-person
- 7am-3pm Entry-level welcome
ABOUT THE ROLE
Are you a hard worker who pays attention to the details and takes pride in doing things right? Discount Pipe & Steel is a pipe and steel distributor based in Pickton, TX (Hopkins County), and we're looking for a dependable, local person to join our team as a Warehouse & Inventory Associate. This is a hands-on, in-person role — you'll be on the floor daily, keeping our inventory accurate, our records clean, and our operation moving. No prior experience in this industry is required. If you're local, reliable, eager to learn, and take your work seriously, we'll train you on everything else. This is a real opportunity to build a career in operations from the ground up — not a temporary gig.
WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING
→ Tracking and logging inventory — You'll record inventory movements, receipts, and shipments in our system every day. Accuracy matters — what's in the system has to match what's on the shelf. → Counting and auditing stock — Regular cycle counts and physical audits to keep our numbers honest. You'll catch discrepancies and flag them before they become problems. → Measuring and calculating — Handling measurements, unit conversions, and quantity checks. You'll need solid math skills and the confidence to use them under pressure. → Inspecting incoming and outgoing material — Checking that what we received matches what we ordered, and that what goes out the door is the right product in the right condition. → Keeping records organized — Physical and digital files need to be findable fast. If someone has to search more than 60 seconds, something's wrong. → Hands-on warehouse work — Moving, tagging, staging, and verifying physical inventory. This is a physical job. You'll be on your feet and active daily. → Solving problems as they come up — When something's off, we don't wait for someone else to fix it. You'll be expected to identify issues and come with a solution, not just a problem.
WHAT SETS YOU APART
→ You're reliable — you show up on time, do what you said you'd do, and don't need to be chased down. → You pay attention. Nothing slips past you, and you treat the details as seriously as the big picture. → You move with urgency. You don't drag your feet or wait to be told twice. → You're coachable. You take feedback without getting defensive and get better because of it. → You can juggle. When priorities shift or things get busy, you adapt and keep going. → You speak up. If you see something wrong, you say something — directly and clearly. → You have a "that's my job" attitude, not a "not my problem" one.
BONUS POINTS
★ You've worked in a warehouse, yard, supply house, or distribution environment — even informally. ★ You're comfortable with Excel, Google Sheets, or basic computer work. ★ You've used any kind of inventory or business software before (we'll train you on ours regardless).

REQUIREMENTS
→ Comfortable with basic math — measurements, unit conversions, and calculations are part of daily work. → Organized and detail-oriented.
