Do you take it personally when a label is wrong or a part gets to the wrong bay?
Are you the kind of person who already knows where everything is — and notices immediately when something's not where it belongs?
Do you feel the pull of a fast-moving floor and a shift that actually ends on time because you ran it right?
Are you the teammate the build line depends on — and you wouldn't have it any other way?
If this sounds like you, then we need to talk…
Frazer, a leading builder of emergency medical vehicles, is currently seeking a Material Handler (Levels I–III) to join our Distribution team at our Houston production facility. Material Handlers are the engine behind Frazer's build lines — keeping parts, materials, and inventory moving so the people who build life-saving vehicles never have to wait. Whether you're just getting started in a warehouse career or you're a seasoned handler ready to step into a lead role, there's a level here for you.
WhatDoes a Week in the Life of the Material Handler Look Like?
Pulls materials from warehouse stock to fill production orders and requisitions — and makes sure every item is labeled and logged before it leaves the shelf.
Walks the floor delivering issued materials to production work centers, keeping every build bay stocked and on schedule before the shift ends.
Runs the system — issues material out in the WMS before physical delivery, so inventory counts stay honest and the data matches the floor.
Monitors Kan Ban levels at assigned work centers and replenishes before the line notices a gap.
Handles material returns, urgent substitutions, and job-order changes without breaking stride.
Operates forklifts, pallet jacks, and product pickers to move heavy and bulky materials safely across a busy warehouse floor.
(Level III) Trains incoming handlers, sets the pace on the floor, and steps in as the first point of escalation when the supervisor is out.
RequiredEducation and Experience:
(Level I) 0–1 year of experience in warehouse, material handling, or a manufacturing environment.
(Level II) 1–3 years of material handling experience with demonstrated proficiency in inventory management and system accuracy.
(Level III) 3+ years of material handling experience; proven ability to lead, train, and own process outcomes.
Proficiency with warehouse management software; ability to issue, track, and reconcile inventory in the system.
Ability to operate pallet jacks, product pickers, and forklifts following Frazer certification training.
PreferredEducation and Experience:
Forklift certification and documented equipment experience in a manufacturing warehouse.
Experience with Kan Ban systems or lean manufacturing practices.
Familiarity with ERP or inventory management platforms (Job Manager, Shop Track, or equivalent).
Skills (to Pay the Bills)Here’s a list of a few competencies that the Material Handler at Frazer should have…
- You're precise by nature — a mislabeled part or a quantity that doesn't match the screen bothers you until you fix it.
- You follow through without being chased — if you said it's getting there by end of shift, it gets there.
- You're steady and dependable — you show up, keep your pace, and take care of your equipment like it's yours.
- You know your way around a warehouse system — you don't need someone to walk you through issuing and tracking materials every day.
- You communicate like a pro — when something's out of stock or a delivery is at risk, you say so before it becomes someone else's problem.
- You take pride in your craft — you do things the right way because that's just how you work, not because someone's…
