POSITION SUMMARY

Portland Bolt (N. Augusta, SC) is hiring a Warehouse Operations Specialist to run daily material flow in a fast-paced industrial manufacturing environment. This is more than a forklift job — you'll be accountable for inventory accuracy, receiving verification, and getting heavy fastener product picked, packed, and shipped correctly the first time. We're looking for someone who treats the warehouse like their own operation.

ESSENTIAL DUTIES

• Execute daily shipping and receiving — loading/unloading flatbeds and box trucks, staging orders, and keeping freight on schedule
• Pick, pack, and prepare orders for shipment with a high accuracy standard — our product goes into structural applications where the wrong part matters
• Verify incoming material against POs; flag and resolve discrepancies, shortages, and damage
• Maintain inventory integrity in our warehouse management system using handheld scanners — own your counts, don't just record them
• Perform cycle counts and support inventory audits
• Operate forklifts safely to move heavy steel product throughout the facility
• Maintain a clean, organized, safety-first work area

QUALIFICATIONS

• 4+ years of shipping/receiving or warehouse experience — manufacturing, steel, or industrial distribution strongly preferred
• Demonstrated WMS and scanner proficiency — experience owning inventory transactions, not just following a pick list
• Ability to read POs, packing slips, and BOLs and catch errors before they ship
• Forklift experience required; certification preferred (we will certify the right candidate)
• Self-directed — able to prioritize workload without close supervision
• Basic computer skills: email, WMS, label printing

PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS

• Regularly lift and move up to 50 lbs
• Ability to stand, walk, and bend throughout the full shift in an industrial manufacturing environment
