Job Description

Warehouse Manager

Are you a hands-on leader with a passion for process improvement and team development? This Warehouse Manager role gives you the opportunity to take full ownership of a 180,000 sq. ft. distribution center with a well-established team and a strong operational foundation. Reporting to a VP/GM who values autonomy and creative problem-solving, you’ll drive efficiency, implement strategic changes, and lead a culture of customer-first excellence.

Responsibilities
  • Oversee all daily warehouse operations, ensuring efficiency and productivity across two shifts.
  • Manage, develop, and lead a team of 16 associates while fostering a customer-first culture.
  • Continuously evaluate and improve operational procedures and KPIs, identifying opportunities for cost savings and efficiency.
  • Guide ERP system implementation (D365) and optimize processes to reduce manual data entry.
  • Evaluate capacity and strategically plan for increased volume—whether through layout redesign or other solutions.
  • Collaborate with leadership and cross-functional teams to improve overall performance and results.
  • Conduct safety meetings and training, ensuring compliance with OSHA, DOT, and company standards.
  • Perform inventory management, including cycle counts and annual physical inventory audits.
  • Recruit, train, and retain top talent, managing performance and driving accountability.

Qualifications
  • Required:
  • Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience.
  • 3+ years in warehouse/distribution management overseeing teams of at least 10.
  • Strong understanding of ERP systems (D365 and Epicor experience a plus).
  • Proven experience in process improvement and inventory control.
  • Customer-first mindset with strong leadership and team-building skills.
  • Ability to operate a forklift and maintain a hands-on leadership style.
  • Understanding of OSHA and DOT regulations.
  • Preferred:
  • Supply chain certifications (APICS, CSCMP, CPIM, or SCPro).
  • Experience with ERP implementation and process optimization.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft D365 applications.
    Why You’ll Love This Role
    • Strong Foundation: Step into a warehouse running smoothly under a retiring manager with a 30-year legacy.
    • Growth & Impact: Lead projects like ERP implementation and capacity planning with full ownership.
    • Autonomy: Work under a VP/GM who values innovation and empowers the team to solve problems creatively.
    • Outstanding Benefits: Affordable medical, dental, and vision plans, plus a 6% 401K match.
    • Collaborative Environment: Build on a strong team culture while shaping the warehouse’s future success.
