Warehouse Associate - Night Shift

Work Shift and Hours

Monday - Friday, 7:00am - 4:00pm

Starting between $20.00 - $22.00 per hour depending on experience.

• Outbound Order Accuracy & Fulfillment
  • Confirm shipping documentation is complete and accurate on every outbound shipment before it leaves the dock
  • Conduct a final physical check on staged orders to catch discrepancies before they become customer problems
• Shipping Documentation & Compliance
  • Generate and verify bills of lading, packing slips, and delivery confirmations for all outbound shipments
  • Document all shipping exceptions – shortages, substitutions, split shipments – clearly and promptly
  • Maintain accurate records of outbound activity in the warehouse management system
  • Flag documentation errors or system discrepancies to the Warehouse Manager before they leave the building
• Inventory Integrity at the Dock
  • Return mis-picks, over-pulls, and damaged product to proper locations immediately
  • Report recurring pick errors or bin location discrepancies to the Warehouse Manager for root cause review
  • Treat every inventory discrepancy at the dock as a signal, not an inconvenience
• Equipment, Safety & Facility
  • Operate pallet jacks, hand trucks, and shipping equipment safely in compliance with Shepherd standards
  • Conduct pre-shift equipment checks and report maintenance needs before they become failures
  • Keep the shipping area organized, labeled, and clear of hazards – aisles open, staging zones clean
  • Maintain safety compliance at your workstation and alert leadership to unsafe conditions immediately
  • Continuous Improvement: surface workflow friction, recurring errors, or staging inefficiencies to the Warehouse Manager
  • Cross-train on receiving and warehouse floor functions to build team flexibility
  • Support onboarding of new shipping team members by modeling accuracy standards and Shepherd values

After 90 days, you and your Manager should both be able to point to these markers:

• Outbound orders leave the dock accurately – right product, right quantity, complete documentation – every shift
• Will-call orders are staged and ready before customers arrive, without being asked
• Shipping exceptions are documented and communicated the same day they occur
• The shipping area is organized, hazards are addressed, and equipment is maintained every shift
• You have surfaced at least one meaningful improvement – a staging tweak, a documentation habit, a catch – in your first 90 days
• The Warehouse Manager trusts that every order that left the dock today left correctly

• You take ownership of accuracy without being reminded – you do not hand off a problem you can solve
• You pay attention when the pace is high, especially on details others rush past
• You treat the shipping dock like a quality checkpoint, not just a staging area
• You communicate clearly and directly – with your team, with dispatch, with counter sales
• You stay steady when priorities shift and volume spikes
• You care about the work being right, not just done
• You want to be part of a team that notices when you do the job well

• High school diploma or equivalent required
• Prior shipping, warehouse, or fulfillment experience preferred; motivated entry-level candidates will be considered
• Forklift or pallet jack certification required or ability to obtain within 30 days of hire
• Familiarity with warehouse management systems and standard computer tools (Excel, Word, email) preferred
• Ability to lift up to 60 lbs. regularly and stand for extended periods
• Ability to successfully complete pre-employment screening requirements
