**Job Title: Forklift Operator**
**Job Description**
This role is a hands-on warehouse and general labor position that involves working both indoors and outdoors in a supply environment.

You handle shipping and receiving, move a variety of materials using sit-down and reach forklifts, and complete all paper-based picking.

You may also interact directly with customers who come into the warehouse, picking orders for them and assisting with various tasks around the facility.

This position requires the ability to lift up to 60 pounds and to work safely and efficiently in a busy, sometimes unorganized setting.
**Responsibilities**
Perform shipping and receiving duties, including loading and unloading materials and verifying paperwork.

Operate sit-down and reach forklifts to pick product from pallets and move materials safely within the facility.

Complete all paper-based picking, accurately reading and following pick tickets and other written instructions.

Hand bomb and manually handle materials, including lifting items up to 60 pounds, often repeatedly during the shift.

Assist customers who come into the warehouse by picking their orders and providing courteous, clear communication.

Carry out general warehouse duties, including organizing stock, staging orders, and performing odd tasks as assigned around the facility.

Work both indoors and outdoors.

Follow safety procedures and use proper lifting and material handling techniques to prevent injuries and product damage.

Adapt to an unorganized and fast-paced environment, staying flexible and willing to go with the flow as priorities change.

Collaborate with an experienced team, communicating clearly and professionally with coworkers and supervisors.
**Essential Skills**
At least 1 year of warehouse experience.

At least 1 year of experience with heavy lifting, including lifting up to 60 pounds (with most items 50 pounds or less).

Valid AB certification on sit-down forklift and reach forklift, or in-house certification as applicable.

Hands-on experience operating sit-down and reach forklifts, including picking product from pallets.

Strong communication skills, including the ability to read and understand pick tickets and other written instructions in English.

Comfort working in both indoor and outdoor warehouse areas.

Ability to work overtime regularly, including approximately 2 extra hours per day when required.

Resilience and the ability to work effectively with an experienced team in a direct, fast-paced environment.
**Additional Skills & Qualifications**
Comfort interacting with customers in a warehouse setting and supporting order picking at the back of a store.

Ability to adapt to a somewhat unorganized environment and remain productive with changing tasks.

Reliability in commuting to a location that may require driving or a longer walk from public transit, including in winter conditions.

Ability to maintain professionalism and clear communication in a team with strong personalities.
**Why Work Here?**




You join a stable branch with an experienced team that values internal growth and long-term opportunity.

The organization promotes from within, offering a clear path from warehouse roles into inside and counter sales and, over time, into managerial positions with expanded responsibility.

You benefit from strong opportunities for career development, increased earning potential as you advance, and consistent hours with regular overtime available.

The culture rewards hard work, resilience, and reliable performance, providing a place where your effort and initiative can directly influence your future progression.
**Work Environment**
The standard schedule is Monday to Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., with frequent overtime of about 2 hours per day.

Approximately 90% of the work takes place indoors, with time spent outdoors to retrieve product stored outside on uneven cement surfaces.

About a quarter of the work involves operating forklifts, while the majority focuses on heavy lifting and general warehouse tasks.

You work with an experienced team that communicates directly and expects explicit, straightforward interaction.

Reliable transportation is important, as public transit may require a 2030 minute walk to the facility, including in winter conditions.

Dress should be appropriate for a warehouse and construction-material setting, with practical, safety-oriented attire suitable for lifting, forklift operation, and working in dusty indoor and outdoor areas.
