Warehouse Associate

Regional Food Bank of Northeastern NY • Montgomery, NY

1d • Onsite

About The Position

The Food Bank is looking for a Warehouse Associate who loves variety and thrives in a fast-paced environment. One hour you might be pulling orders in the cooler, and the next you're managing the receiving dock or organizing overhead steel racking. If you're a "Smooth Operator" on power equipment and want a role where no two days are exactly the same, we want you on our team.

As a Warehouse Associate, you are the backbone of our daily flow. You'll support every corner of the warehouse to ensure food is collected, stored, and distributed efficiently to our neighbors in need.

Requirements

• You are 18+ years old.
• You have the "Aura" of a true team player-you're comfortable switching tasks mid-shift and working wherever the mission needs you most.
• You have experience with power equipment (or the drive to obtain and maintain your certification with us!).
• you work independently and collaboratively because you know your work directly fights hunger in our community.
• Lifting up to 80 pounds solo without assistance.
• Staying active: extended periods of standing, bending, pulling, and reaching.
• Working in a warehouse setting with exposure to extreme temperatures (from "Hot Tamale" summer heat to "Iced Coffee" freezer chills).
• This is a 100% on-site role-the mission happens here on the warehouse floor!

Responsibilities

• Provide assistance across all warehouse areas-Distribution, Forklift, Order Selecting (Dry, Cooler, and Freezer), and the Receiving Dock.
• Safely build, wrap, strap, and label pallets for delivery.
• Drop and reserve pallets from overhead steel racking and replenish picking locations
• Prepare accurate receiving records for food donations
• Maintain a clean, safe workspace and assist with the physical inventory process
• Inspect power equipment daily and follow all safety protocols

Benefits

• We offer a professional, respectful environment where you can build your skills while making a real difference.
