Shipping and Receiving Clerk

Custom Control Sensors•Phoenix, AZ

About The Position

The Shipping and Receiving Clerk controls material entering and leaving CCS. On the inbound side the position receives, verifies, documents, and routes incoming material so that it enters inventory accurately and moves to inspection or stock without delay. On the outbound side the position packages, documents, and ships customer orders so that product leaves complete, protected, correctly documented, and on the date promised. This is one role covering both functions. Each person in the position will typically focus on one side of the work day to day, but is trained and kept current on both so that coverage, volume spikes, and absences never put the schedule at risk. Assignment between inbound and outbound is made by the Supply Chain Manager or Warehouse Supervisor and can change with the needs of the business. This is a key position. Every dollar of material CCS buys and every dollar of product CCS sells passes through this function, and the accuracy of the work here is what inventory, cost, customer delivery performance, and audit records are built on. The position works across the organization, including Accounting, Planning, Maintenance, Quality, and leadership, and is expected to keep learning the business beyond the dock rather than staying inside a fixed set of tasks. Due to the regulated nature of CCS products, the position exercises judgment in verifying documentation, identifying discrepancies before material is accepted or released, and holding shipments that do not meet quality or export documentation requirements.
