You will join a small warehouse team that offers a genuine family feel and a supportive, collaborative atmosphere. The company provides flexibility with shifts to help align work schedules with personal needs and maintains a very flexible attendance approach, aiming to work with employees rather than against them.

This role is based in a non–climate-controlled warehouse that houses over 7,500 different products in a single location. Night shift runs from 2:00 p.m. to 12:30 a.m., Monday through Thursday. The core warehouse team is around 30 people during normal periods and can grow to about 50 employees during peak season from October to December.
