Order Selector - 1st Shift

Job Title:

Order Picker / Packer 1st Shift Job Description Join a growing, family-owned wholesale warehouse that supplies trophies, awards, signs, and personalized items to customers nationwide. In this role you start as an order picker and receive cross-training in packing, inventory, and basic computer work. You accurately pick items from a catalog-based system, prepare them for shipment, and help keep the warehouse organized and running smoothly. The focus is on quality and accuracy over speed, with a consistent weekday schedule and a supportive, close-knit team. Responsibilities Receive and review paper pick tickets for customer orders and verify details against the catalog. Walk throughout the warehouse to locate products and match part numbers accurately to the pick ticket. Use a push cart to gather items from various locations in the warehouse for each order. Lift boxes and products weighing up to approximately 30 pounds on a consistent basis. Climb ladders up to 12-15 feet to retrieve items stored on higher shelves when needed. Work with a paper-based picking system (no RF scanners), following established, "old school" processes. Visually check and verify parts and quantities before orders move to packing to ensure high accuracy. Learn and perform daily inventory tasks, including cycle counts and basic inventory adjustments. Perform packing duties by placing items into appropriate boxes, adding necessary materials, and securely taping boxes for shipment. Complete light computer work related to inventory and order processing using a simple internal system. Rotate between picking and packing as needed based on daily workflow and business demands. Assist with side duties such as cutting plastic trophies and participating in general facility cleanup as part of the team. Support warehouse operations during peak seasons (especially April through June and days following holidays) by maintaining strong attendance and productivity. Once hired directly and trained, operate additional warehouse equipment such as a cherry picker and sit-down forklift as needed. Follow all safety guidelines, including proper ladder use and safe lifting techniques, to maintain a safe work environment. Why Work Here? You join a stable, family-owned company with a strong track record of job security and a close-knit, supportive culture. Once hired directly, you gain access to comprehensive benefits including medical, dental, vision, 401(k), and short- and long-term disability, effective the first of the month after conversion. The paid time off structure is highly rewarding, with PTO earned each pay period and additional incentive PTO tied to team accuracy and individual performance, allowing you to accrue significant time that can also be paid out if unused. Performance-based bonuses during the busy season, annual holiday bonuses, and thoughtful gestures such as Thanksgiving gifts and branded gear reinforce a culture of appreciation. Regular potlucks, snack Fridays during peak months, and yearly evaluations with potential raises further highlight a people-focused environment that promotes from within and offers opportunities to apply for internal openings across multiple locations.
