Shipping & Receiving Clerk
Job Description:
Strategic Position Overview
This role owns the end-to-end warehouse execution flow for non-stock and special-order fulfillment within a manufacturing distribution environment. The position carries direct accountability for order accuracy, inbound receiving integrity, shipping documentation, and physical inventory movement that directly impacts production continuity and customer delivery performance. Success in this seat requires disciplined execution across picking, packing, receiving, returns coordination, and warehouse upkeep while maintaining transactional accuracy inside the operating system. The scope is hands-on, process-driven, and critical to daily throughput reliability on first shift.
Warehouse Order Fulfillment Specialist
Location: Fairfield, OH
Industry: Manufacturing
Schedule: Monday – Thursday (4x10)
Shift: 1st Shift
Compensation Range: $20 – 25/hr
Employment Structure: Direct Hire
About the Opportunity
This position is responsible for the physical and system-based execution of outbound order fulfillment and inbound shipment processing within an industrial warehouse setting. The role directly supports shipment readiness, special-order accuracy, and receiving documentation control, with ownership spanning pick verification, wrap-and-pack execution, PO entry, and manufacturer returns. The environment requires comfort around moving equipment, industrial noise, and daily material handling. This is a production-support warehouse role where precision directly influences downstream customer and operational outcomes.
What You'll Do
- Pick and verify non-stock and special-order materials from warehouse shelving using item identifiers and quantity controls
- Package and label outbound shipments to ensure invoice visibility and shipment traceability
- Process wrap-and-pack orders by validating packing slips against purchase orders and resolving count discrepancies
- Enter purchase orders and inbound shipment receipts into the warehouse system with accurate sales order linkage
- Coordinate return shipments to manufacturers for repair processing
- Support outbound packaging for regional and out-of-town shipments
- Operate forklifts and material handling equipment for warehouse movement and storage
- Maintain warehouse organization, cleanliness, and storage discipline across assigned areas
What You'll Need
- High school diploma or GED
- Prior warehouse order picking and receiving experience
- Forklift operating experience in an industrial setting
- Working knowledge of packing slips, purchase orders, and shipment verification workflows
- Ability to read written work instructions and match part identifiers accurately
- Experience working in a noise-controlled industrial warehouse requiring PPE compliance
Why This Role Stands Out
The 4x10 Monday–Thursday first-shift structure creates a differentiated schedule advantage while maintaining full-time hours. The role also offers broader ownership than standard picker positions through direct PO system entry, returns coordination, and special-order fulfillment accountability.
