  • Enforce safe loading procedures and company standards for mixed-freight handling
  • Direct forklift operators and dock associates to stage and load outbound freight efficiently

Inventory & Systems Management

  • Utilize NetSuite to manage outbound order flow, monitor inventory accuracy, and generate shipping reports
  • Leverage WMS and RF scanners to confirm picks, validate loads, and maintain real-time inventory integrity

  • Support cycle count programs and collaborate with the Inventory team on outbound-related variances

Quality Control & Compliance

  • Ensure all outbound orders meet PowerPak quality and accuracy standards prior to shipment
  • Enforce packaging, labeling, and documentation compliance across all shipment types
  • Maintain a safe, organized, and OSHA-compliant dock environment
  • Report and document incidents, near-misses, and equipment issues promptly

Reporting & Continuous Improvement

  • Prepare and deliver end-of-shift operational reports covering shipment volumes, exceptions, route performance, and team productivity
  • Identify and recommend process improvements across dock operations, routing efficiency, and carrier utilization
  • Partner with Operations Management to develop and implement SOPs for outbound workflows
  • Analyze shipping data trends to reduce costs, improve delivery accuracy, and enhance customer experience
