Warehouse Specialist

New Castle, DE | Full-Time | Operations | Saf-Gard Safety Shoe Company

About the Role

Warehouse work is hands-on, fast-paced, and all about accuracy, timing, and consistency. If you've worked in warehouse associate jobs, warehouse worker roles, or distribution center environments, you understand how important every step of the process is.

This Warehouse Specialist role supports three key areas of our operation: shipping, general warehouse, and returns processing. Each area plays a critical role in making sure safety footwear gets to customers and internal locations accurately and on time.

This facility operates in a non-temperature-controlled environment. Team members should be prepared to work in varying conditions and dress accordingly.

At Saf-Gard Safety Shoe Company, we believe in keeping things straightforward. No bureaucracy. No unnecessary drama. Just good people working together to solve problems and support our customers.

  • Pick shoes for customer orders (order picking / pick pack ship)
  • Process shipments systematically through the warehouse management system (WMS)
  • Pack and prepare orders for outbound shipment (packing and shipping / outbound logistics)
  • Ensure order fulfillment accuracy and quality control before shipping
  • Work within scheduled shifts (currently Wednesday–Sunday, 9am until completion; subject to change)

General Warehouse

  • Work scheduled shifts (currently Friday–Tuesday, 9am until completion; subject to change)

Returns Department

  • Receive returned safety footwear from customers
  • Inspect, verify and process returned products through our system
  • Clean and re-box footwear according to quality standards
  • Ensure inventory accuracy during returns processing
  • Work scheduled shifts (Monday–Friday, 9am until completion)
What We're Looking For
  • Experience in warehouse jobs, warehouse worker roles, warehouse specialist or material handler positions
  • Ability to perform order fulfillment, shipping and receiving and inventory control tasks
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced distribution center or fulfillment center environment
  • Strong attention to detail and commitment to inventory accuracy and quality control
  • Ability to work in a non-temperature-controlled environment
  • Willingness to learn warehouse systems and processes (WMS experience a plus)
  • Reliable, team-oriented and able to work independently when needed
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience with order picker, pick pack ship or warehouse operations
  • Familiarity with loading dock operations, inbound logistics or outbound logistics
  • Experience with cycle counts, stock replenishment or inventory control systems
  • Previous work in returns processing or reverse logistics environments
  • Experience using warehouse management systems (WMS)
Schedule
  • Full-time position
  • Multiple shift structures depending on department assignment
  • Weekend availability required depending on role
  • Shifts run 9am until work is completed
  • Schedules are subject to change; confirmation provided prior to interview
Compensation & Benefits
  • Company-paid dental, vision, long-term disability, short-term disability, and life insurance beginning the first of the month after 60 days
  • Multi-tiered medical insurance plans to choose from (benefits valued at over $10,000 annually)
  • 8 paid holidays per year
  • PTO available after 90 days (starting at 3.08 hours per pay period, approximately 1.5 weeks annually), with opportunities to earn additional PTO based on tenure
