OPERATIONS MANAGER
About The Position
Storage Squad was founded in 2011 in Ithaca, NY, by Cornell students who wanted to make college moving & storage easier. Over the past 10+ years, the business has grown, and in 2020 it became part of the 1-800-PACK-RAT | Zippy Shell Moving & Storage Made Simple family. Today, Storage Squad helps students at 40+ schools across 15+ states – and we’re still growing! Our partner schools appreciate how we help students while reducing congestion in and around campus, and our students and families appreciate how we make move-in and move-out easier and less stressful. The Manager oversees operations—including staffing, recruiting, training, logistics coordination, shipping and receiving, and truck driving—to ensure the seamless delivery of services and materials.
