Job Description
Job Summary This role handles what happens between an order coming in and a box leaving the building. You'll pull items, pack them securely, and double check the label against the contents before it ships. Some stretches are quiet, and you'll use that time to restock or straighten your station. Then a truck's about to load and everything speeds up at once. You're on your feet most of the shift, lifting boxes and scanning items, and you'll typically work near the same small group as orders move through. We generally keep two shifts running to cover the day. Responsibilities Pulling items to fill outgoing orders Pack boxes with tape and appropriate padding Scanning items and printing shipping labels Verifying packing slips against contents before sealing Loading completed orders onto pallets or carts for pickup Restock tape, boxes, and labels as needed Wiping down and resetting your station during slower periods Reporting a damaged or short shipment and setting it aside for review Qualifications Small mismatches on a packing slip rarely slip past you, even during a busy stretch. You follow instructions closely, whether they're coming from a supervisor or written on the order itself. Working with a basic scanner or label system is something you pick up without much trouble. When orders come in faster than expected, you adjust your pace instead of falling behind. A full shift of lifting and standing doesn't wear you down. You're reliable about showing up when scheduled, since the packing line depends on a full crew. Even when the station gets hectic, you stay steady rather than rushing into mistakes. You get along easily with the people you're working alongside, pitching in where it's needed.
