Warehouse Lead (Working Lead Hand)
We are a growing warehousing and logistics company looking for a hands-on Warehouse Lead to help run our day-to-day operations on the floor. This is not a desk job — this is a working leadership role for someone who can lead by example, stay organized under pressure, and keep freight moving efficiently.
About the Role
You will be responsible for coordinating daily warehouse activities, directing staff, and ensuring inbound and outbound freight flows smoothly — especially during busy periods when multiple trucks and containers arrive at once.
You’ll work alongside the team while also acting as the point person on the floor, making real-time decisions to keep operations running efficiently.
Key Responsibilities
Direct and coordinate daily warehouse activities (receiving, picking, staging, loading)
Manage dock flow and prioritize inbound/outbound freight
Assign tasks and adjust staffing based on workload throughout the day
Act as the main point of contact for drivers and warehouse staff
Ensure trucks are loaded/unloaded efficiently and safely
Identify and resolve bottlenecks quickly
Maintain organization of staging areas and warehouse layout
Assist with loading, unloading, and general warehouse duties as required
Promote a strong work ethic and accountability within the team
What We’re Looking For
Strong leadership presence — someone people naturally follow
Ability to stay calm and make decisions in a fast-paced, unpredictable environment
Previous warehouse experience (shipping/receiving, LTL, freight handling)
Forklift experience (required)
Highly organized with strong problem-solving skills
Ability to manage multiple priorities at once
Strong communication skills (especially with drivers and team members)
Reliable, dependable, and takes ownership of their role
What Success Looks Like
Trucks are turned around quickly with minimal delays
Staff know what they’re doing and stay productive
The warehouse stays organized and controlled — even during busy periods
Problems are handled quickly without disrupting the entire operation
Why Join Us
Stable, growing company with long-term opportunity
Hands-on role with real responsibility and impact
Supportive team environment
Opportunity to grow into a larger leadership role over time
If you’re someone who takes pride in running an efficient operation and leading from the front, we’d like to hear from you.
