Shipping and Receiving Lead

Russell Hendrix Food service Equipment is looking for a Shipping & Receiving Lead to join our Quest manufacturing team in Winnipeg. Quest is our in-house manufacturing division, producing custom stainless-steel fabrications and gas appliances, all 100% handmade in Winnipeg. The Shipping & Receiving Lead is the last set of hands on every product before it reaches the customer.

This role more than an operational one, it’s a direct reflection of the standard that Russell Hendrix holds itself to and that Quest is known for. We're looking for someone who brings experience, steadiness, and a genuine commitment to leading well. The ideal candidate sets the tone for their team, leads with consistency and calm, and takes pride in creating a stable, productive environment that is focused on customer satisfaction.

If that sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you.

At Russell Hendrix Food service Equipment, we empower customers to succeed by providing high-quality food service solutions across Canada. For over 80 years, we've been a trusted partner to restaurants, hotels, and institutions nationwide, delivering industry-leading design, product solutions, distribution, and execution.

We're a team of people who believe how we work matters just as much as what we achieve. Our values of respect, integrity, and accountability guide how we treat one another and serve our customers.

Our culture is defined by a strong customer focus, a mindset of winning as one team, a commitment to investing in success, and a genuine sense of care. We collaborate, support one another, and take pride in delivering great work together.
