Warehouse Associate - Wire Room

About Shepherd Electric Supply Since 1892, Shepherd Electric Supply has been the first call when complex, time-critical electrical challenges need to be solved and reliability truly matters. We move materials accurately and on time so contractors stay on schedule, projects stay on track, and customers never have to wonder if we’ll come through.

Our success comes from people who take pride in doing things the right way — safely, accurately, and with care for teammates and customers alike. If you want to do work that matters at a company that notices, this is the place.

Why This Role Matters The Wire Room is where product integrity begins. When wire and cable orders are cut accurately, pulled cleanly, and packed right the first time, contractors get exactly what they need — no delays, no rework, no errors in the field.

This role sits at a critical point in the fulfillment chain. What you do here directly affects whether customers can trust us on their next call. Precision is not a preference — it is the standard.

How This Role Connects to Our Compass We Keep Our Promises:
Your cuts are right the first time. Orders leave your station complete and accurate. When something is off, you catch it before it ships — not after. Your teammates and customers can count on your work without having to check behind you.

We Stay Hungry:
You ask why a process works a certain way. You notice when something could be faster, safer, or more accurate. You bring ideas forward and stay curious about the product you’re handling.

We Grow Together:
You communicate early when issues arise. You support cross-training and make the whole wire room stronger. When volume spikes, you step in without being asked.

We Own It:
You don’t wait for a Manager to notice a problem. You own your station, your accuracy, and your safety. No excuses, no shortcuts, no leaving errors for the next shift.

We Go Above & Beyond:
You see the full picture — the contractor on-site depending on what you packed. You take pride in doing it right, especially when no one is watching.
