2nd Shift Warehouse Inventory Supervisor

To maintain operational excellence and ensure inventory integrity across all shifts, the addition of a 2nd Shift Warehouse Inventory Supervisor is essential. This role will directly support critical inventory control functions, drive continuous improvement, and ensure seamless coordination of material flow and accuracy during second shift operations. The absence of dedicated leadership during this shift poses risks to inventory accuracy and operational efficiency.

This position is a strategic investment in operational reliability, inventory integrity, and team leadership. The supervisor will fill a critical gap, enabling the warehouse to function as a cohesive, efficient, and accountable unit across all hours of operation. Strong communication skills will be key to ensuring this supervisor can lead effectively, resolve issues promptly, and maintain alignment across teams and shifts.

Inventory Accuracy & Control

    • Training & Compliance

  • Ensures associates are trained in inventory procedures, safety protocols, and system usage, reducing errors and improving compliance.

    • Continuous Improvement

  • The supervisor will identify inefficiencies, propose process enhancements, and implement best practices tailored to second shift operations.
  • Examples include optimizing bin layouts, improving put-away accuracy, and reducing cycle count variances.

    • Cross-Shift Communication
