The Trainer supports the Materials Team by training and certifying team members (TSMs) in skills specific to their area and, as department needs require, in skills for work in other distribution center areas. Training may include certification on machines. When not training, the Trainer performs department functions. The role also involves retesting TSMs when procedures change and retraining those with low productivity or accuracy, as well as participating in special projects and performing other assigned duties. The position requires strong training, communication, and leadership skills; adaptability; attention to detail; problem-solving ability; and the ability to follow instructions, manage multiple assignments, and work under stress. The Trainer must be able to pass machine-driver safety training for required equipment and have good reading, writing, math, and computer skills. One year of general warehousing operations experience and a high school diploma or equivalent are preferred, though comparable work experience may be considered. The work takes place throughout a warehouse and may involve hot or cool temperatures, hazardous items, noise, and dust. Physical activities may include grasping, bending, standing, reaching above shoulder height, extensive walking, lifting up to 50 pounds, using step ladders, and operating equipment while standing. Work may involve machines operating up to five levels high. The stated schedule is 2 p.m.–10:30 p.m., Monday through Friday.
