Inbound/Outbound Logistics Coordinator

Location: Newark, Delaware
Schedule: Full-Time
Compensation: Up to $22.00 per hour (based on experience)

A day in the life

Your shift begins in a clean, climate-controlled shop where precision matters. You review the morning pick list, print labels, and walk the floor to coordinate what must ship and what just arrived. A forklift beeps as you move pallets to staging; a quick inspection catches a dinged corner on an inbound crate, which you document and flag. By mid-morning you and a teammate rebuild a crate using hand and power tools, then secure a finished order with proper packaging and labeling. After lunch, you finalize bills of lading, update inventory transactions, and make a run in the company van to transfer parts. You wrap the day by tidying your bay, logging cycle counts, and confirming everything is queued for tomorrow.
