Night Shift Dog Watching Jobs (NOW HIRING)

About Shepherd Electric SupplySince 1892, Shepherd Electric Supply has been the first call when complex, time-critical electrical challenges need to be solved, and reliability truly matters. We move materials accurately and on time, so contractors stay on schedule, projects stay on track, and customers never have to wonder if we will come through.Our success comes from people who take pride in doing things the right way — safely, accurately, and with care for teammates and customers alike. If you want to do work that matters at a company that notices, this is the place.Why This Role MattersThe Warehouse Manager — Night Shift is the operational backbone of the Laurel warehouse after hours. Every fill rate, every accurate outbound order, every clean handoff to the day team traces back to how well this operation runs — and how well this leader leads it.This is not a floor supervisor role with a bigger title. This is the role responsible for running a warehouse operation — shipping, receiving, inventory control, and team execution — that holds up when volume spikes, staffing is tight, and the margin for error is zero. The day shift inherits what you build. You set the standard, develop the team, and own the outcomes, not just on the easy nights, but on the hard ones.When the night shift executes cleanly, every other function executes better. Drivers leave on time. Orders are right. Customers get what they ordered. That starts here.How This Role Connects to Our CompassWe Keep Our Promises:You own shift outcomes. If something is off — inventory gap, late shipment, unsafe condition — you address it before it becomes someone else’s problem. The night shift does not slow down because leadership is not watching.We Stay Hungry: You are always asking what could be faster, cleaner, or more reliable. You surface patterns, not just incidents, and push for root cause over quick fixes.We Grow Together: Your team grows because you invest in it. You develop your Warehouse Lead as a successor, not a helper. Cross-shift consistency is part of your ownership.We Own It: You hold yourself accountable first. You do not manage through excuses. When a process fails, you redesign it — you do not blame the people running it.We Go Above & Beyond: You anticipate before the ask. The day shift inherits a clean, accurate, ready operation. Nothing is left unresolved for someone else to untangle.Key OutcomesOrganized by what matters, not just what you do.Warehouse Operations & Daily ExecutionOwn nightly warehouse operations — shipping, receiving, inventory control, wire management, and truck logisticsMaintain operational flow across all inbound and outbound functions so work keeps moving without stalls or reworkSet and enforce accuracy and pace standards for the warehouse team each shiftCoordinate with dispatch, counter sales, and purchasing when time-sensitive exceptions ariseEnsure will-call orders are staged and ready before customers arriveTeam Leadership & DevelopmentSelect, onboard, and develop warehouse staff — including Warehouse Leads — so the team executes without depending on heroicsCoach, counsel, and hold team members accountable through direct, consistent feedback — not just documentationDelegate clearly, follow up on completion, and build a crew that holds itself to a standardEscalate performance or conduct concerns to the Branch Manager promptly and without delayDevelop your Warehouse Lead as a capable successor, not just an extra set of handsMaintain familiarity with Central Maryland delivery routes and ensure driver and routing coordination functions smoothlyInventory IntegrityOwn inventory accuracy — cycle counts, physical inventory, bin location maintenance, and discrepancy resolutionTreat inventory discrepancies as signals requiring root cause investigation, not isolated incidents to close outEnsure all inbound freight is received accurately, exceptions are documented, and overages, shortages, or damages are resolved before entering inventoryFlag recurring discrepancy patterns to Branch Manager for systemic reviewOutbound Fulfillment & ShippingEnsure outbound orders leave clean — right product, right quantity, complete and accurate documentationVerify shipping documentation is complete on every outbound shipmentPrioritize time-critical and priority-flagged orders with urgency and direct communication to affected teamsEquipment, Facility & SafetyMaintain safe, organized warehouse operations — aisles clear, equipment functional, hazards addressed before they become incidentsOversee pre-shift equipment inspections and ensure maintenance needs are reported and resolved proactivelyOperate and ensure team compliance with forklift, pallet jack, and reach truck certification requirementsServe as the primary accountability layer for warehouse safety compliance — model it, enforce it, and never treat it as a formalityProcess Improvement & Cross-Shift ConsistencySurface inefficiencies, recurring errors, and workflow friction — and act on them, not just report themRecommend and test process changes that improve accuracy, speed, or team capacityContribute to cross-shift consistency by communicating clearly with day shift leadership on open issues, handoff status, and follow-up itemsSupport branch expansion readiness — your operational systems should hold up when we open the next locationWhat Success Looks LikeAfter 90 days, you and your Manager should both be able to point to these markers:Inbound freight is received accurately;
