About The Position

We are seeking a Warehouse Manager to lead our warehouse operation and the team that keeps our entire company moving.

Accountability is viewed as providing coaching, direction, and support to ensure tasks are done correctly. The warehouse manager will lead warehouse operations from receiving product through staging for deliveries, ensuring products are received, tagged, stored, and prepared accurately.

The manager will lead from the floor, coaching in the moment, setting clear expectations, holding people accountable while helping them succeed, giving feedback consistently, jumping in when the team needs help, and leading by example. This role requires bringing teams together by working closely with Delivery, Install, Customer Care, Maintenance, and Retail teams, communicating proactively, solving problems collaboratively, and understanding that success is measured by helping other teams succeed.
