Sharp Warehouse Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Since 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.

The DC branch operates at a tempo that demands precision from the first moment the doors open. As the Warehouse Lead, you are the person who sets that tempo. You open the building, manage the flow of inbound and outbound freight, keep inventory accurate, and make sure every order - from will-call pulls to outgoing branch transfers - moves correctly and on time.

This is a high-ownership role. You are not waiting for direction on what needs to happen - you already know. Sales orders need follow-up, transfers need to close clean, POs need to be received and put away before the floor gets behind. When the wire area is tagged and organized, when cycle counts are current, when discrepancies are resolved the same day they are found, the whole branch runs better.

The DC branch is a high-visibility location. How this warehouse runs reflects directly on Shepherd's commitment to the customers we serve in this market.

We Keep Our Promises: You open at 5:00 a.m. sharp. Transfers close with discrepancies resolved. POs are received accurately and put away the same day. When you take on a task, it gets done - not partially, not later.

We Stay Hungry: You flag patterns - recurring inventory gaps, discrepancy trends, wire area issues - and bring your manager ideas, not just observations. You look for ways to tighten the operation, not just maintain it.

We Grow Together:You coordinate proactively with writers on Direct SOs, with drivers, and with other branches receiving your transfers. The rest of the branch can rely on the DC warehouse because you make it reliable.

We Own It:Discrepancies get resolved before you leave. Manifests close clean. Direct SO follow-up happens without being asked. You do not leave loose ends for the next shift or the next person.

We Go Above & Beyond:Will-call customers don't wait. Delivery prep is done before it's needed. The warehouse is organized and clean not because it's required - but because you take pride in the environment you run.

Organized by what matters, not just what you do.

Opening & Branch Operations

• Open the branch at 5:00 a.m. sharp - every day, reliably, without follow-up needed
• Set the operational tone for the day: warehouse ready, priorities identified, work moving before others arrive

Inbound Receiving & Inventory

• Unload, receive, and put away early AM tagged freight and stock transfers; close manifests after all discrepancies are resolved
• Receive and put away PO shipments from UPS, FedEx, and trucking carriers accurately and promptly
• Meet the DC branch's monthly cycle count goal
• Follow up on and resolve inventory-related discrepancies the same day they are identified
• Manage the wire area: tag reels with lot numbers, replace empty reels, maintain organization
• Replenish and condition shelves: restock items, front and face inventory, and remove box tops

Outbound Transfers & Order Fulfillment

• Accurately pick, pack, and label all transfers going out to other Shepherd branches
• Manage Direct Sales Order (SO) shipments: contact and follow up with the writer via email on open and pending items
• Pull will-call orders and ensure customers are not waiting when they arrive
• Assist customers at the counter when needed

Delivery Operations

• Make occasional deliveries using Shepherd's van (non-CDL; DOT physical certificate required)
• Represent Shepherd professionally on every delivery - on time, accurate, and courteous

Facility & Safety

• Keep the warehouse organized and clean at all times
• Follow all safety requirements without exception
• Identify and report safety hazards or maintenance needs before they become failures

After 90 days, you and your Manager should both be able to point to these markers:

• The branch opens at 5:00 a.m. every day without question - no delays, no exceptions
• Transfers go out clean and manifests close with discrepancies resolved, not deferred
• POs are received accurately and put away the same day
• Direct SO follow-up happens proactively - writers are contacted before they have to ask
• Cycle count goals are met monthly
• The wire area is consistently tagged, organized, and current
• Will-call customers are not waiting when they arrive
• Discrepancies are resolved the same day they are found
• The warehouse is clean and organized every shift, not just on good days
• The Warehouse Manager trusts the DC warehouse runs correctly when they are not watching

This role is a strong fit if:

• You own the outcome, not just the task - you do not leave for the day with loose ends unresolved
• You move with urgency and stay accurate under pressure - the DC pace is real, and you match it
• You communicate proactively: with writers, with other branches, with your manager - not after problems surface
• You are organized in a high-volume environment - wire areas, PO queues, transfer staging do not get away from you
• You take pride in the space you run - a clean, organized warehouse is a standard, not a nice-to-have
• You want a role where your judgment and reliability directly shape how well the branch serves its customers

• High school diploma or equivalent required
• Experience in warehouse operations, receiving, or distribution preferred
• DOT physical certificate required for delivery duties (or ability to obtain prior to first delivery)
• Familiarity with warehouse management systems and standard computer tools (email, Excel)
• Ability to lift up to 60 lbs. regularly and stand for extended periods
• Valid driver's license required
• Ability to successfully complete pre-employment screening requirements

• Competitive hourly pay with opportunity for growth
• Medical, dental, and life insurance
• Prescription drug coverage
• Paid vacation and personal time
• 401(k) with employer match
• Stable organization with over 130 years of industry leadership
• A culture where reliability is noticed, ownership is rewarded, and people come first
• A company scaling into new markets - with real paths to grow with it

Work Shift and Hours: Monday - Friday, 5:00am - 2:00pm

Compensation Details: The expected pay rate for this position is starting at $25.00 - $28.00 per hour depending on experience.

Additional Information:

• Steel toed boots that cover the ankle bone are required.
